[Verse 1: Conway Twitty]
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
[Verse 2]
Then someone stole my angel
And I lost what I loved most
I may never get to Heaven
But I once came mighty close
[Verse 3]
I may never play a golden harp
Or spread celestial wings
Or walk a golden staircase
Wile the distant chorus sings
[Verse 4]
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
[Tag]
I may never get to Heaven
But I once came mighty close
