Lyrics

I May Never Get To Heaven

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I walked with you

And talked with you

And held your loving hand

We loved awhile, I lived awhile

And thought fate had a plan

Oh, but someone stole my angel

And I lost what I loved most

I may never, ever get to heaven

But I once came mighty close

Never play a golden harp

Or spread celestial wings

Or walk a golden staircase

While the distant chorus sings

I once held your sweet love

And I felt your tender touch

I may never ever get to heaven

But I didn't miss it much

I may never, never ever get to heaven

But I didn't

I really didn't miss it much (miss it much)
