  • BOBBY GOLDSBORO / creektrouble THIS VIDEO IS FOR DONNA A SWEET EXISTENCE! HONEY
    See the tree how big it's grown
    But friend it hasn't been too long it wasn't big
    I laughed at her and she got mad
    The first day that she planted it was just a twig
    Then the first snow came and she ran out
    To brush the snow away so it wouldn't die
    Came runnin' in all exited
    Slipped and almost hurt herself and I laughed 'til I cried
    She was always young at heart
    Kind of dumb and kind a smart and I love her so
    And I surprised her with a puppy
    Kept me up all christmas eve two years ago
    And it would sure embarrass her when
    I came home from working late 'cause I would know
    That she'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
    She wrecked the car and she was sad
    And so afraid that I'd be mad but what the heck
    Though I pretended hard to be
    Guess you could say she saw through me and hugged my neck
    I came home unexpectedly
    And caught her crying needlessly in the middle of the day
    And it was in the early spring
    When flowers bloom and Robin sing she 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 home
    While she was there and all alone the angels came
    Now all I have is memories
    Of Honey and I wake up nights and call her name
    Now my life's an empty stage
    Where Honey lived and Honey played and love grew up
    And a small cloud passes over head
    And cries down 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 Ilaughed at her and she got mad

    Sept. 2023. I was 15 when Honey was released and thought it was sweet but something that I could never experience Today I was looking at my wife of 29 years, who dresses in mix and match thrift store clothing, and fills our house with plants, and harp music, and a tiny dog 🐕, and is very much the flower child from the 60's. And I pulled up this song, Honey, and slow danced and cried tears of joy that I am so blessed. Thank you Bobby G.

    Tomorrow would have been 36 years for my wife and me, but I only got 6 years with her. She died at 37 from a brain tumor. I miss her every day but she did give me 3 beautiful kids. One is 44 and the twins, a boy and girl will be 36 this year. She was brilliant, beautiful and had a hippie personality about her that I fell in love with. This song brings me back to those wonderful years we had together.

My brother and I played the song 17 months later at dad's funeral. In 2007 driving my brothers ashes to Tombstone AZ, while traveling through Texas late one night, with my brothers ashes in the back set AND without searching for 'any' channel on the radio, oldies or otherwise, I turned on the radio and Bobby Goldsboro was singing Honey....it was truly a God Moment....and now that 45rpm record is number 174 on my jukebox.

    I always liked this song as a kid, but it hits so differently in my older years. I lost my honey, Mike 1-14-21……very unexpectedly. He was my brother’s childhood friend and I always loved him. Finally we got together after many years of being with others. We had 5 and 1/2 blissful years together. He was always laughing and always happy……such a beautiful soul. I miss you, Mikey and I’m being good ❤

      They are sleeping with the angles get a big soft bed throw even if ifs a child's something that reminds you of him or her and like me i sleep like a butterfly my blanket wrapped around me
      I call it my snuggle bug

    My wife is in the hospital. Not sure she will ever come home. This song came to mind and I had to hear it. Made an big impact on me when I was a teen, never really knew why until now. It’s been 50 years since I last heard it. God sure is great.

  • @carolinebraniffmatthews6091

    My sister died aged eight in 1967
    Just before she died, she had gone missing, we found in church praying.
    The one thing she so wanted was to make her communion. The Catholic priest denied her this, because she could not memorize the text in the prayer book. I felt so sad for her and offered her my place with no avail.
    A week later she died.
    This song helped me through the grieving process at the young age of ten. I didn't t understand the lyrics then, but the magic and tranquillity of the voice were enough for me to gain some solitude. This was the beginning of my music therapy to that of religious therapy🎶🎵🎼

      As we now all now know most of these Catholic Priests were all Paedophiles, denying your Sister communion was just plain EVIL, she was such a young girl, rules more important than compassion, I hope he did not come to her funeral, he was obviously the DEVIL. I am not religious and have never been, and I am glad that I was not, as the most evil people that have been exposed in the last 20 years were the Paedophile Catholic Priests and also the Nuns that murdered thousands of children born to unwed mothers. Religion is EVIL and the Ministers and Priests are just plain EVIL.

    He was 37 and she was 35 years old. My Buddy had a love relationship you'd never seen before. Such love between the two, beyond belief. Just over a year after the beginning of their relationship she developed terminal cancer and was given less than a year to live. What devastation! That being said, their love grew even stronger. On the night she passed away she was in his arms and the background music was playing. As she spoke her last words, "I'll always love you," this song (HONEY) started playing. And tears just flowed down our eyes. We have never forgotten this song, which of course reminds of her passing. Bobby Goldsboro...such good music!

    This is indeed the saddest song I’ve ever heard and never fails to make me cry. This song has a special place in my heart. My grandpa, who passed away in 2012, used to play this song in the car sometimes when I was young. He’d be driving me to school in the morning, and I remember wondering why he would listen to such a sad sad song and enjoy singing along to it. The sad story would get stuck in my head all day and I would listen to it on my own. Now I think of him when I hear this song. I miss you Poppy, and I’m being good.

    There are a handful of songs that are so utterly beautiful, that speak so directly to our hearts, that combine lyrics and harmonies so completely perfectly, that convey the passage of time, the pain and joys of life, and the sacrifices we make for love, that they will be with us for all time, decades into the future. This is one of those songs.

    When I listened to this song as a teenager in the 1970s it didn’t really make sense, but such is the nativity of youth. After losing my dear Susan in my 20s a big part of me died. This same song that I thought was a mushy tune still brings me to tears now that I’m an old man in my 60s. I loved you Susan. I got to live a full life after you, got married, had a family etc…but I still miss you every day.

We have been so much, Our eldest son had a seizure disorder growing up, brain cancer his senior year of high school, and a paralizing stroke five years ago. Our younfest son had brain cancer at age 22 and died a year later. We have always worked to gether to make, with NO HELP from any one. My sister said I was a self made man because Nobody ever helped us. It has always been my wife (Sherry) and me against the world, but we made it. This song represents the love a couple SHOULD have for eacg other, like we do. Thank You for this wonderful video.
