Single Drop of Honey

Abigail Washburn

If a single drop of honey would bring you to me
I'd break that sweet rock open
and hold it out for thee

She asked him for a penny
He gave her a dime
She asked him to stay forever
He said "all will come in time"

She prayed for him to come back
He sent a voice true
She barely heard the words
He said "I'm not so far from you"

She grew old holding on
He called her from afar
"You desire more than men are able.
Find me in your heart."
