I walked with you and talked with you and held your loving hand
We loved awhile, I lived awhile, and thought that fate had a plan
Ah but someone stole my angel and I lost what I love most
I may never get to heaven, but I once came mighty close

I may never play a golden harp or spread celestial wings
Or walk a golden staircase while the distant chorus sings
Ah but I once held your sweet love and felt your tender touch
I may never get to heaven, but I didn't miss it much
I may never get to heaven, but I didn't miss it much
