Honey (I Miss You)

(专辑： Gentle On My Mind - 1968)

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 'twas just a twig
Then the first snow came and I ran out
To brush the snow away so it wouldn't die
Came running in all excited, slipped and almost hurt myself
And you laughed till tou 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 it would sure embarrass me when
You came home from working late 'cause you would know
That I'd been sitting there and crying
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

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 say
And it was in the early spring
When flowers bloom and robins sing, I went away

And Honey, I miss you, too and I'm being good
And I'd love to be with you, oh, 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 life has just begun and
Even though you miss me, Hon, you must go on
And when a small cloud passes overhead
And cries down on the flower bed, you know you're not alone

Yes, 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 'twas just a twig

Oh, see the tree how big it's grown...
