Honey (I Miss You)

See the tree how big it's grown

But then it hasn't been too long, it wasn't big

You laughed at me and I got mad

The first day that I planted it, it was just a twig

Then the first snow came and I ran out

To brush the snow away, so it wouldn't die

Came runnin' in all excited slipped and almost hurt myself

And you laughed 'til you cried

Yes, you were always young at heart

Kinda dumb and kinda smart and I loved you so

You surprised me with a puppy

Kept me up all Christmas Eve two years ago

And you could sure embarrass me

When you came in from working late

'Cause you would know

That I'd been all alone and cryin'

Over some sad and lonely late, late show

And honey, I miss you too

And I know you're being good

And I'd love to be with you

If only I could

I wrecked the car and I was sad

And so afraid that you'd be mad, but what the heck

All afternoon you stormed around

But I knew how to cool you down, I hugged your neck

You 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, I went away

And honey, I miss you too

And I know you're being good

And I'd love to be with you

If only I could

One day when you were not at home

While I was there and all alone, the angels came

Guess you thought it strange of me

To leave the way I did that day, it was a shame

But now your laughter's just begun

And even though you miss me hon', you must go on

And when the snow cloud passes overhead

And cries down on the flower bed

You'll know you're not alone

See the tree how big it's grown

But then it hasn't been too long, it wasn't big

You laughed at me and I got mad

The first day that I planted it, it was just a twig
