Now all I have is memories
And honey, I miss you
And I'd love to be with you
And honey, I miss you
But friend it hasn't been too long, it wasn't big
And I surprised her with a puppy
And now my life's an empty stage
And then the first snow came
While she was there and all alone the angels came
I laughed at her and she got mad
I came home unexpectedly
Though I pretended hard to be
When I came home from working late 'cause I would know
Found her crying needlessly in the middle of the day
And I'm being good
The first day that she planted, it was just a twig
Yes, see the tree how big it's grown
Where honey lived and honey played and love grew up
Of honey and I wake up nights and call her name
Kept me up all Christmas Eve two years ago
A small cloud passes overhead
Slipped and almost hurt herself, I laughed till I cried
And I'm being good
That she'd been there a crying
And it was in the early spring
The first day that she planted, it was just a twig
Over some sad and silly late, late show
And cries down on the flower bed that honey loved
Came running in all excited
And honey, I miss you
She was always young at heart
If only I could
And she ran out to brush the snow away so it wouldn't die
Guess you could say she saw through me and hugged my neck
So afraid that I'd be mad but what the heck
She wrecked the car and she was sad
And I'd love to be with you
I laughed at her and she got mad
If only I could
And I'd love to be with you
And I'm being good
Kinda dumb and kinda smart and I loved her so
When flowers bloom and Robins sing, she went away
Yes, one day while I was not at home
And it would sure embarrass her
