I May Never Get To Heaven

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...
