WHEN DID YOU LEAVE HEAVEN?
Words and Music W. Bullock and R. Whiting
When did you leave heaven ?
How could they let you go ?
How's every thing in heaven ?
I'd like to know.

Why did you trade heaven ?
For all these earthly things ?
Where on earth did you hide your halo ?
Where did you lose your wings ?

Have they missed you ?
Can you get back in ?
If I kiss you would it be a sin ?

I am only human
but you are so divine.
When did you leave heaven
angel mine ?
