Music and Lyrics by 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 dont 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?
Ill find my way through night and day
cause I know I just cant stay here in heaven...

can bring you down, Time can bend your knees
Time can break your heart, have you begging please...begging please

Beyond the door theres peace Im sure
And I know therell 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 dont belong here in heaven...

I think this is a sad song….how sad to think about it.  But it is so beautiful, and has such a haunting melody.  Thank you for sharing it.   Blessings to you.  Kathy

you're right, I didn't know the story before yesterday and yet the feeling in his voice, the words and the wistful music are deeply moving.
