Silver Sandals Lyrics - Porter Wagoner

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 little 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 ask 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 walkin' through our minds
