I Know How It Feels

I've never been to heaven, not the one on high
But I have been to heaven just the same
Taken by an angel, off to paradise
In her arms she carried me away
Well, I may never see it but I know that it's real
I've never been to heaven but I know how it feels

Well, I've never been a gambler but I lost it all
The moment that she turned and walked away
Taking foolish chances with my baby's love
A loser at my own two timing game
I knew it was a long shot still I spun the wheel
I've never been a gambler but I know how it feels

I've never been in prison, behind them cold gray walls
But I am a prisoner still the same
Longing for my freedom I hear the highway call
But I'm held here by her memories by a chain
I may not be locked up by hard concrete and steel
I've never been in prison but I know how it feels

No, I may not be locked up by hard concrete and steel
I've never been in prison but I know how it feels
