Tears In Heaven

And to kick off the all new “Tunes I Love” series….
“Tears In Heaven” – Eric Clapton
This song has a very special place in my heart,
and requires no further introduction…

“Tears In Heaven”
Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would 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 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 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.

I’m going down the list of your tunes… and wondering, why don’t I do something similar? So, do I have your permission, please? Tuesday Tunes… that sounds like a winner to me!
Anyway… are you still blogging? I’m happy I’m visiting here again… I used to enjoy our occasional banter…
Be good… have fun! 😉

Makes me go all tingly this song. Such wonderful romantic words 🙂 I just love Eric Clapton’s voice and, of course, his legendary guitar playing.

It was a very long time before I could listen to this song without crying. Still hard actually.
