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
淚灑天堂 維基百科,自由的百科全書
《淚灑天堂》(Tears in Heaven)是英國歌手埃里克·克萊普頓為了紀念他年僅4歲的兒子康納(Conor)而創作並演唱的一首歌曲。1991年3月20日上午11點,由於保姆的不慎,康納從他母親位於紐約的53層公寓的窗戶摔落。不幸發生後,克萊普頓幾個月都極度悲傷。[1]
如今我演唱這些歌曲時,我不再為失去他們而感到悲痛。當我創作它們的時候,我覺得他們就在那裡。現在他們已經離去而且我真的不再希望他們回來。我的生活已經發生了改變,而他們需要安靜地休息,我會用另一種方式來紀念他們。 I didn't feel the loss anymore, which is so much a part of performing those songs. I really have to connect with the feelings that were there when I wrote them. They're kind of gone and I really don't want them to come back, particularly. My life is different now. They probably just need a rest and maybe I'll introduce them for a much more detached point of view.
