The only thing I can remember of this song is..'a little girl was waiting for a daddy one,something..the little girl she trembled the tears she could not hide,she looked up towards heaven then she replied.'"How far is heaven,When can I go,to see my daddy he's there I know. How far is heaven let's go tonight,I want my daddy to hold me tight. I've been to lyrics.com and such,but I can't find it...Please help. My dad used to sing it to me when I was a kid.

Here it is:
HOW FAR IS HEAVEN
(Written by Tillman Franks / Jimmie Davis)
Kitty Wells
A little girl was waiting for her daddy one day
It was time to meet him, when she heard her mommy say
Come to mommy, darling, please do not cry
Daddy's gone to heaven, way up in the sky
CHORUS:
How far is heaven, when can I go
To see my daddy, he's there, I know
How far is heaven, let's go tonight
I want my daddy to hold me tight
He was called so suddenly and could not say goodbye
I know that he's in heaven, we'll meet him by and by
The little girl trembled, her tears she could not hide
She looked up toward heaven and then she replied.
REPEAT CHORUS

How far is heaven let's go tonight I want my daddy to hold me tight
A little girl was waiting for her daddy one day

Come to mommy darling please do not cry
Daddy's gone to heaven way up in the sky
How far is heaven when can I go to see my daddy he's there I know
How far is heaven let's go tonight I want my daddy to hold me tight

He was called so suddenly and could not say goodbye
I know that he's in heaven we'll meet him by and by
The little girl trembled her tears she could not hide
She looked up toward heaven and then she replied
How far is heaven when can I go...

This 1958 'tear-jerker' recorded by Kitty Wells, remains a Classic favorite well into the turn of the century. ..
