When I came home today, saw the bed was made All the dishes had been cleaned and put away And I knew Honey had been here and he did the best he could But as for the reason, well, I ain’t too sure See, it was four weeks ago while we laid in bed after one of our fall-backs when I finally asked him I said, “Honey, why you trying so hard? I thought you wanted out.” And like a dagger thrust into my heart he said “For guilt and doubt. See baby, I feel ready to move on with my life, but tears still paint your pretty face in the pale moonlight.” Well I realized there and then that Honey loved me no more So the next day I made plans to get as far as I could go I traveled New Mexico, ended up in New Orleans where I kissed a boy from Dallas and let him sweep me off my feet But when I came back home I saw Honey at the door saying, “Baby, oh, how I’ve missed you. Let’s go for one round more.” Now to be honest, I don’t remember much from that point on just his sad, sad eyes and a new hole in the wall Next day as he left for work I asked, “What’d I say to make you so mad?” He said, “Nothing baby, it’s all my fault” and “I’ll fix it when I get back.” Well I ain’t seen Honey for about a week I stayed somewhere else last night to get better sleep but Honey kept on showing up in all of my dreams so I said a heartfelt prayer for him as I slipped into my jeans When I came home today, saw the bed was made All the dishes had been cleaned and put away And I knew Honey had been here and he did the best he could But Honey, it’s too late this time, you broke my heart for good
