You'll Never Get To Heaven
Marlene Meets Masato Honda B.B.Station Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I walked with you
And talked with you
And held your loving hands

We loved awhile
I lived awhile
And thought that fate
Had it planned

Then someone stole my angel
And I lost what I loved most
I may never get to Heaven
But I once came very close

I may never play a golden harp
Or spread some angel wings
Or walk a golden staircase
While the distant chorus sings

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

I may never get to Heaven

But I didn't miss it much
I may never get to Heaven

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "You'll Never Get to Heaven" by Marlene Meets Masato Honda B.B. Station convey a poignant reflection on love and loss. The singer reminisces about a time when they walked, talked, and held hands with their beloved, experiencing moments of deep connection and affection. This period of love and companionship felt like a fulfillment of destiny, a blissful chapter in their life that seemed preordained.


However, the mood shifts when the singer reveals that their angel, their source of love and happiness, was taken away from them by someone else. The loss of their beloved leaves a profound void in the singer's life, causing them to question whether they will ever experience such profound love again. The idea of reaching Heaven, a metaphor for eternal happiness and fulfillment, suddenly feels out of reach and uncertain.


Despite the pain of losing their love, the singer reflects on the precious memories and moments they shared with their beloved. The fleeting experience of love, the warmth of tender touches, and the depth of emotion felt during their time together hold a special place in the singer's heart.

The lyrics convey a bittersweet acceptance of the possibility that the singer may never reach Heaven or experience the traditional imagery associated with it, such as playing a golden harp or walking a golden staircase. Despite this realization, there is a sense of peace and contentment in knowing that the love they once had was profound enough to make Heaven feel less significant. The emphasis shifts from a longing for Heaven to a gratitude for the love that was shared, emphasizing the importance of cherishing the moments of love and connection we experience in our lives.
