Song Lyrics

I walked with you and talked with you
And held your loving hand
We loved awhile and I lived awhile
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 the distant chorus sings

But once I 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 once came mighty close

Bill Anderson, Buddy Killen
