Eric Clapton's 4 1/2 year old child,Conor,died March 20, 1991
after falling from the window of his mother's 53rd
floor Manhattan high-rise apartment.
Clapton channeled his shattering grief
into writing the heart wrenching 1992 tribute to his son,
"Tears in Heaven."
TEARS IN HEAVEN
Eric Clapton
Would you know my name
if I saw you in heaven ?
Would you feel 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 ?
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 knees.
Time can break your heart
have you begging please.
Begging please...
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 ?
Would you feel 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.
