Tears In Heaven

I've decided to revamp my blog. I'm gonna try to be a little more spiritual in my blogging about my fealings n'at. But i named my blog "Tears in Heaven" which is a song by Eric Clapton. This song touches my heart for many reasons. Lyrically, the song is incredible, Eric Clapton wrote it as a ballad about the pain he felt when his 4 year-old son died. Knowing that makes me want to cry because no one deserves to lose a young child. One of the most powerful things that i learned is that around 2004, Clapton stopped performing the song live because he's gotten over it, and every time he sings it, emotions are brought back which are too strong to bear.



Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong, and carry on
Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven
I'll find my way, through night and day
Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in heaven

Time can bring you down
Time can bend your knee
Time can break your heart
Have you begging please
Begging please

(instrumental)

Beyond the door
There's peace I'm sure.
And I know there'll be no more...
Tears in heaven

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong, and carry on
Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven
