I walked with you and talked with you and held
your lovin' hand
we loved a while and i lived a while and i
thought that fate had it planned
then someone stole my angel and i lost what
i loved 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 a distant
chorus sings
but once i had 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 once
came mighty close
