Honey Bee

[Verse 1]

Honey bee

Come buzzing me

I ain't seen you for so long

I need to feel you

I mean to reel you

Like the one described to me in song

[Verse 2]

Out in the woods

Tall pine tree woods

She gave sweet loving to me

Her woodland grace

Her soft embrace

My face in shadow

Honey bee

[Verse 3]

Won't you come see me in the morning?

Won't you come see me late at night?

For it ain't right, no it just ain't right

You're meant to turn away from the light

[Verse 4]

Night, all my lights are on

I need a little one on one

This useless, helpless feeling

A young man should be blessed with love

There's just flesh and fire below

This drunken, senseless reeling

Hands on my face

Some silk and lace

Sweet perfume kisses

For me...

[Verse 5]

Wherever you burn

I have returned

You lucky lady

Honey bee

[Bridge]

I have to leave you in the morning

You always wanted to be free

[Verse 6]

Stay with me

Sweet lucky lady

Don't ever leave me

Honey bee

[Verse 7]

Awake in cold places

Cool ice and icy faces

Some dead and some living

Most of them doing something in between

[Verse 8]

My lady in waiting

Must have turned to hating me

Some bitter awakening this has been

The next time she calls I'm gonna let her in

The next time she calls I'm gonna let her in

[Bridge]

And if she leaves me in the morning

At least we both have been relieved

[Outro]

Now stay with me

Stay with me

Sweet lucky lady

Don't you ever leave me

Honey bee
