Silver Sandals Lyrics

SILVER SANDALS.

 In silver sandals she goes walkin' up those golden stairs

 And though we miss her so we know she's happy to be there

 She walks with us in memory we see her all the time

 In silver sandals walkin' through our minds.

 So many times we let our thoughts turn back to yesterday

 To a little girl that could only watch the children as they played

 She walks with us in memories we see her all the time

 In silver sandals walkin' through our minds

 The grave in which she sleeps is cold but our thoughts of her are warm

 And we cry as we both long to hold her in our arms

 Each night in dreams we see her running to us smiling sweet

 With silver sandals on her feet

 In silver sandals she goes walkin' ...

 She had asked for sandals from the time that she could talk

 And it would break our hearts when she'd asked us why she couldn't walk

 She'd say when I go to heaven can I change my crutches then

 For a pair of silver sandals at the rainbow's end

 In silver sandals she goes walkin'... 

 In silver sandals she goes walkin' through our minds.
