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...
