Lynn Anderson Lyrics for Song: Honey
 Lyrics for Album: Singin' My Song [Harmony] [1973]
 
 
 
 17195>(Bobby Russell)
 
 
 
 See the tree how big it's grown
 
 But friend it hasn't been too long it wasn't big
 
 And I laughed at him and he got mad
 
 The first day that he planted it it was just a twig.
 
 
 
 Then the first snow came and he ran out
 
 To brush the snow away so it wouldn't die
 
 Came runnin' in all excited, slipped
 
 And almost hurt himself and I laughed till I cried.
 
 
 
 He was always young at heart
 
 Kinda dumb and kinda smart and I loved him so
 
 And I surprised him with a puppy
 
 Kept me up all Christmas Eve two years ago.
 
 
 
 And it would sure embarrass me
 
 When he'd come in from working late 'cause he'd always know
 
 If I'd been sittin' there and cryin'
 
 Over some sad and silly late, late show.
 
 
 
 And honey, I miss you and I'm being good
 
 And I'd love to be with you if only I could.
 
 
 
 He wrecked the car and he was sad
 
 And so afraid that I'd be mad but what the heck
 
 Though I pretended hard to be
 
 Guess you could say he saw thru me and hugged my neck.
 
 
 
 He came home unexpectedly
 
 And caught me crying needlessly in the middle of the day
 
 And it was in the early spring
 
 When flowers bloom and robins sing he went away.
 
 
 
 And honey, I miss you and I'm being good
 
 And I'd love to be with you if only I could.
 
 
 
 One day while I was not at home
 
 And he was there and all alone the angels came
 
 Now all I have are memories
 
 Of honey and I wake up nights and call his name.
 
 
 
 Now my life's an empty stage
 
 Where honey lived and honey played and love grew up
 
 And a small cloud passes overhead
 
 And cries down on the flower bed that honey loved.
 
 
 
 And see the tree how big it's grown
 
 But friend it hasn't been too long it wasn't big
 
 And I laughed at him and he got mad
 
 The first day that he planted it it was just a twig...
