My son passed away several months ago from a heart attack at the age of 47. Actually he was my stepson, but I raised him and his sister ever since he was less than a year old and his sister was 3. He was a wonderful son,husband, and father. I see him in my 4 beautiful granddaughters whenever they visit. My heart hurts every time that I see them. RIP Jamey, I miss you and will be with you again one day. Love you son!
Marilee Denr that's beyond terrible.i hope you are able to find some sort of peace in your life.i wish you all the best in such terrible circumstances.very very sad.im sorry.
“A wife who loses a husband is called a widow. A husband who loses a wife is called a widower. A child who loses his parents is called an orphan. There is no word for a parent who loses a child. That’s how awful the loss is.” Jay Neugeboren, An Orphan's Tale . "Life is a test with more questions than answers..."
Dear Sunshine, there are no words to take youre prain...but I can tell u too 100% that u will see him again, if u want to, the death is just an illusion I could you explain that but I would need much time for that and I dont know u...try to speak with youre son trough youre brain ....send him love, tell him how u feel, tell him, he can "speak" with u too, but guess there will be no voice in youre head, guess he will communicate with feelings ...and other things ...just be mindful and open If u have any question I'll answer. I love u and wish u the best! (I LOVE EVERYONE....but most people dont know this kind of love)
My first-born little girl was born with no lungs in '98. She lived just a few minutes but she taught her Daddy a whole lot about life and LOVE in her short time. God has poured blessings, grace and mercy on this house. I will thank him all my days.
My son lived 22, regardless he stayed many years away from us, he taught us about kindness, hope, love, happiness, injustice, hard work and so on, his legacy is immaterial but I furiously hold it tight as my lifejacket in the middle of the stormy live I am. Thank you for sharing your experience.
This song makes me cry all on it's own but your comment brought me to my knees. Bless you and your husband, I pray you have a healthy child in the future.
My son was killed in a freak accident in 1972-that is more than 50 yrs ago. I still miss him, his smile, laughter, and his hug; still cry about him. Hopefully, I won't have any more tears in heaven! Love this song. Thank you, Eric Clapton!
I lost my son too. It still hurts every day. I lost my daughter too, we played this song at her funeral. Some wounds are not healed by time. Saying a prayer for you. ❤❤
Loss of a love is very deeply felt in the heart. I lost sisters an my dad who I know cherished me and their family. To this day I miss them deeply. At tines my grief hits hard. Which is hard bc I grief in silence all alone bc it feels more real.
My dad passed away 20 hours ago. He loved eric clapton. And was a huge music fan in general, its where i get it from. Music from all generations and genres. He used to regularly blare his fave music out of these huge speakers that he had hooked up to a whole sound system in the house. He'd sing along and bust out in random dances and it'd make doing mundane household chores and such much more fun for himself as well as everyone else. This song has always reminded me of him. So i tried to listen to it just now, to try and feel close to him. I only got 30 seconds in tho. I saw another comment here, from someone else who has lost their dad a few years ago. But is only recently able to listen to this song. I hope i too can listen to this song, and many many others that he loved an introduced me to, and smile again instead of cry. I also hope everyone in these comments who's struggling, hurting or going through anything rn, finds some solace and peace in this beautiful song. Enjoy it for the ones who can't right now. And enjoy it for the ones who are no longer here to enjoy it with us.
My condolences to you. I lost my father 18 years ago today. He was also an EricClapton fan with an eclectic taste in music and there are times when I can listen to this song and just smile at the memories it brings. Today is not one of those times. Even after 18 years grief can still take your breath away. Stay strong friend 🧡
Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family, I certainly understand how you feel losing both my parents, Pray that someday when its our time God will reunite us with our loved ones, again my thoughts to you and yours
I certainly understand how you feel, my condolences go out to you and other family members, I will pray that every day after will give you the strength to make it in life, You chose a right song to dedicate to your fathers passing, like I said before I lost both my parents, prayers go out to you and other family members
I lost my brother to cancer on Father's Day. 2024 I miss him so much. He was my best friend. We had been through hell growing up and managed to come out strong by God's Grace. I heard this song and it just makes me weep. I know one day I will see him in heaven. But for now I will carry on. Love and miss you lil bro. ❤️
I play this every year as a tribute to my daughter who passed away from cardiac arrest, as a 3 1/2 month infant. I was blessed with 4 sons. Ariel was my only girl.
@Dariyush Karanjia Thank you, the hardest dates are her birthday date, and death date. If I had 1 wish, I'd love to hold her 1 hour, then God could have her back.
I'm a son losing his father to alzheimers and this resonates with me too. Last night when I came to visit him, he asked me who I was for the first time. He's barely 60 and lives now at an institution having been diagnosed 7 years ago. I desperately need him to remember me and for him to know that I recently became a father myself. He was the best father, and never once let me think other than that my sister and I were the most important things for him - and he never ever said no when I needed him. I remember once, when I was 19 and living in another town - and he called me on a saturday evening. I had just gotten a proper manflu and complained that I had no painkillers, or even soda. Wouldn't you think - a few hours later he knocked on my door with a mix of concern and wolfish grin that only he could accomplish. Then he drove me home to his place and took care of me. How the hell do I cope??
You will because you have to and because he would want you to. I know it's hard but he would want you to pick up the pieces and carry on. He would want you to be happy and you''ll be happy again one day and I promise that you'll treasure your memories of him.
There is hope, a carnivore diet, being in ketosis helps the brain run on ketones. See Videos by Dr Anthony Chaffee MD, Thursdays you can ask questions it's pacific time, I think 9P. There is more, but I'll try to do tomorrow. Coconut oil powder> MCT in a drink is a great help too.
@@janonthemtn be wary of things that'll give you false hope mate. The world is full of people with simple solutions to complex problems. They've never worked before, and I doubt your Chaffee is the one to disturb that trend.

I lost my husband 11 years ago. I chose this song to play at his funeral. Whenever I hear this song I cry as much as I did the day he died. Continue to rest in peace my love.
Awww, so sorry about your loss Jenn. I truly understand how it feels losing a loved one, my wife passed while having our daughter, wasn't easy for me though but I'm grateful to God for today 🙏. My deep and sincere condolences, how have you been? 🌺😢
My brother died 4 months ago in a car accident a week before his birthday he was going to be 19. I didn’t get to see him much because we don’t live with our parents and he ended up living with my uncle while I lived with my grandma. I’ve been missing him a lot and trying to accept it it’s just so hard. I’m feeling for everyone in the comments. Prayers sent to you all.
So sorry for your loss. Some of us just die before our time without any understanding why . 18 is just too young to die and never gotten to truly experience life.
My brother died at 18 and this song always reminds me more of when my mother first heard this song on MTV back when it was released her getting emotional listening to it. The words speak so true but I believe we'll all see them some day. Peace from New York 🙋♂️
Today 1 oct 2024 From Thailand , A tragic fire broke out on a school field trip bus in Thailand, leaving many students and teachers injured and dead. It is a heartbreaking tragedy that has deeply saddened the Thai people. I dedicate this song to them. R.I.P
I'm Thai and i just have found this song, sadness comes along into my mind for the saddest situation young kids along with their teachers, uncontrollably tears on my face.
He’s gonna come back soon and beat the shit out of cancer. (The metaphor there is that his ghost will aide in the discovery of a cure for his specific cancer form. Which probably hasn’t happened yet but it will) He’s gonna make cancer look like a little bitch
I know it's hard but go live life without her. Life is hard and everyone has a moment where they are forgotten. Go try to get remembered in a different way. Hey, maybe go try making a song like this man made.
My wife and my son are now in Heaven. May this wonderful song reach them and tell them that I miss them so much, that I still love them and that I will always love them 💔
I’m absolutely certain of ever single thing you stated. They know of this song , and they can feel your love. That’s the power of both- they reach beyond this physical plane. I am thinking deeply and sending prayers for you, them and all those who well see again one day. We’ll know our names i Predict as well. Please take care and be well my friend ❤
Lost my girlfriend in march mate, I feel for you. Stay strong it all works out in the end, trust me, I have experienced trauma my entire life. They can be incredible catalysts for positive change if you allow it
I lost my dad due to covid. He was 61, it was so unexpected, one day we had the best talk we could ever have had and the next talk was through a videocall before he got intubated. Miss him so much
My only brother who had asperger's syndrome died on the 29th of August 2015 4 days before his 27th birthday, just nearly 3 weeks ago. We laid him to rest 3 days ago, and this song was chosen by his father, my dad. Me and my brother Jamie were both adopted from different families because my parents could not naturally have children. Burying one of them so soon in their lives has been horrendous. I want to ask everyone to remember that the next time you come across someone in your life who may be a little odd, or strange, please do not dismiss them. We should all be kind to one another. It is what is going to keep this world turning. My brother's resilience toward the cruelty of society and amazing spirit inspires empathy and bravery in me. Jamie, you are my hero. And I will love you always. Eric thank you for helping to bring my father some closure with this beautiful song and aiding in the peaceful respite for all of us. He leaves behind his 5 year old son, who turned 5 on the same day as his daddy would have turned 27. We love and miss Jamie so much.
Lyrics : 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 you 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 lost my wife 2 weeks ago from covid-19. The feeling of having to watch the love of your life slowly choke to death, alone in icu and not being able to do anything about it...is indescribably horrific and it tore a hole in me. She tried to call me while I was at work, before they sedated her because knew she wasn't coming back. I missed her calls due to the poor reception where I work. She left her sister a message to give me saying "tell trinity that I love him.". I loved her more than I ever thought I could love someone. And although my heart still beats... I died with her in icu that day. RIP Kathryn Bernard. I hope you know how much you meant to me. I miss you so much, it literally hurts me. I would have done anything to rewind time long enough to have been able to answer when you called. If I could only go back in time long enough to give you one last painful kiss.
@@KN-ob8hm... She was a born again Christian and loved the Lord. In revelations, the 21 judgements which were divided into 3 groups of 7 (7 seals, 7 trumpets, 7 bowls)... Those are indeed God's wrath on the nations. However, those obviously haven't happened yet according to the prophetic biblical timeline. If anything... You could say that covid 19 was a standard Corona virus that has been possibly genetically modified for reasons of population control, or maybe wasn't genetically modified, but used as a fear machine to drive the global majority to stand in line to get vaccinated... But God's wrath? You should spend more time in learning scripture... And not passing judgment on people you know nothing about.
Watched my dad pass today, while I was hugging him and telling him to go be with mom. I also told him that I'll be ok, and everything will be ok. He took his last breaths right in front of me. I've cried and cried today, over and over, but I'm happy that he's finally at peace and with my mom again.
When I was about 5 my mom would play this soothing song for me before bed and run my back. She died when I was 7 from suicide. I searched for this song for years. I remember her once telling me the story about the songs meanings but I didn’t remember it or any of the lyrics since I was so young. I searched for the song for years hoping to hear the decades old tune that my mom loved so much. This is the song!
The story behind the song: "Tears in Heaven" by Eric Clapton Eric Clapton and Italian model Lore del Santo welcomed baby Conor into the world on August 21, 1986. On March 19, 1991, Eric took Conor to the circus. It turned out to be the most special days they'd ever spend together as father and son. At the time, Eric was struggling with alcohol addiction, but it was his desire to be a good dad that get helped him get non-indulgent to alcohol. "When he was born, I was drinking and he was really the big reason that I went back to treatment because I really did love this boy," he recalled. "I know he's a little baby, but he can see what I'm doing, and I'm tired of this. I realized I had to break the chain and give him what I never really had - a father," said Clapton. The next morning, as Clapton was due to arrive to pick up Conor for another day out, this time to the Bronx Zoo and lunch at an Italian restaurant. Conor was running around the 53rd apartment in the New York high-raise building. A janitor had been working on the windows in the living room but one was still open. Clapton called out to the nanny to watch the child, but before she could react, Conor dashed past her, jumped out on the low window-ledge where he'd normally press his nose against the glass. He fell out of an open window from the 53rd floor. They said the window, about six feet high and four feet wide, was left open after it was cleaned by a housekeeper. The devastating news made headlines around the world, and threw Eric into a tailspin. "I remember looking at this beautiful face in repose and thinking, 'This isn't my son. It looks a bit like him, but he's gone.' " Clapton said. However unknown to most people is that after Eric Clapton attended Conor's funeral in 1991, he quietly received a letter that would leave him speechless. Conor wrote him a letter. Telling him how much he loved and missed him whenever he was away. When Clapton was finally able to pick up a guitar again, he started arranging chords with the vision of his golden-haired son in his head. Before he knew it, he had written 'Tears in Heaven' as a tribute to his son, which would go on to be one of the greatest hits of the 90's and of his career. He also began raising awareness for childproofing windows and staircases. In 2004, Clapton no longer plays "Tears in Heaven" live, having stated that he has moved past the emotional distress that inspired the song. "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 there 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 you 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
Eric Clapton..the biggest British white nationalist d - head in the lot...the man who made his entire living and Fame off of Black Blues is a massive racist...😑
I lost my 9 year old daughter in 1997. She was murdered by one of my best friends. I had this song played at her funeral and I cried and cried that day. All these years later I still cry my eyes out when I hear this song. My little girl is in Heaven and one day I will see her again. God Bless you sweetheart!!
My Daddy was a huge fan of Eric Clapton. He passed away 3 years ago from suicide and tonight was the first time I was able to listen to this song. I must be strong & carry on... I love & miss you so much Daddy. 8/15/54-2/22/21 😢🕊️💕
Say the Lord's prayer every day for your father and the forgiveness of his sins. Our heavenly Father loves him, Jesus loves him, and the Holy Spirit understands and loves him. ✝️
Molina, how are you now? I just read about your bitter lost. I only can think about how you feel, some friends of mine committed suicide and a son of an old friend of me, too. But I, in person, didn't have to through this unbelievable pain. But: can I do anything for you? Write me here, we'll find a way. You needn't be totally alone. I'm only a woman, but…perhaps better than noone or easier than someone too close. May God bless you, I believe in Him in any situation and that is the begin of help for me. I'd never say you have to believe, too.
@@ConnyNordlicht I lost a close uncle of mine to cancer in October, and had my now ex-fiance sabotage our relationship. Been focusing on myself through music, martial arts, and God. Day by day I'm doing better.
@@linomolina7855 try not to hate that stupid ex-fiance, please. Great you answered so fast! Thanks! I'm here, even in years, if once you want to talk or lean on. I'll be there. As long as I live.
find solace in the idea that your dad lived a full life, made you into the adult you are now and is prob watching you up from above, proud of everything you will still acomplice in life..... take care of yourself and my condolences for your loss

My best friend, Bagel, a 13 yo Beagle mix passed away in my arms on Saturday morning at a park; we thought we would have a few more weeks or even the weekend left. I miss him terribly, but am grateful for this song.
Hi Dave I'm a nobody just a stranger but I just wanna say that I really believe that you will pull through. Remain strong at all times and enjoy every fragment of time we are blessed 🖤🖤🖤🖤✨✨✨
My mother did as well @44. I sympathize with anyone that loses a parent this way. The pain they were suffering is now their children’s pain. So hard to get past.
Omg. I am sorry to know that. I am struggling now myself very hard with major depression but no one care and understand what I am going trough....been years
@Eve hyland no I have no kids. Everynight I couldnt sleep well, have nightmare, and everyday being hopeless. But here no one care I mean they think I made it up like drama. I dont like to go outside except I need things to be done or buy something. Not interest to talk to others, since I am being rejected by people who closed to me. I spent most of my day in the house, in my room with my cat.
@@bookiner the same thing happens to me. I dont see my girfliend by two weeks now. I dont leave my house and no one understands how I feel. She doesnt want to see me becouse she things that I am making a drama or something. I dont want to lose her but I thing it will happen soon if I dont change. Im already with no job and full of credit card debs. Dont know how to get over it (sorry for my english)
My brother Charlie passed away exactly a week ago from Covid-19, ever since he was tested positive and was put in isolation in the hospital, my biggest fear was knowing the fact that i will never be able to meet him in person again until he is fully recovered. 29th of March 11.30 Pm i made a video call with my brother giving him as much of moral support as i can, he still jokingly said that he could beat the disease despite his weary face and deteriorating condition. And on 30th of March a news came to my family that he passed away... The fact that we weren’t able to even see his body for the last time up until his funeral adds to our sorrow even more.... My thoughts and prayers are always with Charlie and all the people who died of this horrible disease, as to everybody else, please take care of your safety and health, stay home no matter what happened, this difficult time will pass sooner or later.... Edit: I never got this much like on the comment section, and i thank all of you from the deepest bottom of my heart for your kind condolences, and i also pray you all can pass this pandemic hardtime, take good care of yourself and your loved ones. Once again, Bless all of you....
My condolences, I just lost my grandmother today, from other health issues. I understand the pain of not being able to see them in person. I am glad you were able to have that video call with him, I am certain you will cherish that moment.
I want to send my hug from my family of 4. I love you and will pray for you and your family. Kids are precious and pure in God's 👀. So rest assure he is resting in peace for the day God calls us to him. Again, I love you friend .
When my mom died this is the song my dad learned to play on the guitar. He would play it almost every night for a long time and then break down crying. Every time I hear it I think of my mom and it feels like she died just yesterday. All can do is just learn how to live with it each day.
I did the exact same thing when my mom died in 2002 learned this song and jammed it every single day... Cannot hear this and not be overwhelmed by the sorrow of losing her to this day....almost 20yrs passed now.

Just readung the comments and you cry. It means you have a very good heart. God loves you in the name of Jesus Christ let him bless you and protect you always.
My uncle just passed away yesterday from kidney failure. My 96 year old grandmother has already buried all 4 of her brothers and sisters, her husband, her oldest, and youngest son. Having to stand there by her side as she watched her only remaining son take his last breath was just absolutely devastating. The pain in her voice as she leaned over, kissed his forehead and said one last prayer for him was enough to bring even the strongest man to tears. This woman has suffered so much pain through her lifetime. She has lost almost everyone she holds dear. And yet, through it all, has never lost faith in God and has remained the kindest, most gentlest soul I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. In 34 years, I've never once seen her lose her temper, get angry, upset, scream, or yell. She always puts everyone else's needs ahead of her own and is just the epitome of what it means to be a loving mother and grandmother. I have listened to this song much in the past but it just hits you so much harder after suffering a loss. You can't make it through its' entirety without having to choke down the tears. God bless you Eric Clapton. God bless you Mommom. RIP uncle Barry. You will be sorely missed. Everyone will be reunited one day then there will be no more Tears in Heaven.
I lost my beloved husband to cancer 2 years ago. This song always brought tears to my eyes every time I hear it. It is one of the song that reminds me of my husband! He is my angel now. R.I.P always my love!
I have an angel in heaven. She was six years old. I'm learning to play this song and it comforts me. Thank you, Mr. Clapton. Did you ever imagine your broken heart would help mine?
This is so sad. My kids are 9, 4 and 2 and I can just imagine the amount of pain you must be going through. I believe that our Creator has a reason for everything and He/She (Creator) might just have the biggest pain in seeing how you suffer because of your daughters death because He created us with love in His image. But He has a reason for everything and a purpose for everyone... I believe your daughter would want you to be with her in the eternal resting place created for us all... RIP to your daughter and find peace in the Creator as He might want you to see the bigger picture and find your purpose from this...
Dear Joann, My name is Joel, I’m a pastor in a reformed church in Switzerland. I thougt about using “tears in heaven” in my church-teaching-class and read your comment.

All the best and may God bless you and keep you! Joel Below the letters: Liebe Joann, Unser aufrichtiges Beileid! Es tut uns leid, was mit ihrer Tochter geschehen ist, es bedrückt uns sehr. Wir wünschen ihnen alles Gute und wir beten für sie! Liebe Grüsse, Jonas, Flurin Liebe Joann, Deine Geschichte berührt uns sehr. Es tut uns schrecklich Leid, dass du dieses schwere Schicksal verkraften musst. Uns fehlen die Worte! Dein kleiner Engel wird auf deinem weiteren Lebensweg immer über dir wachen.

We buried my mother last week. She was 94. The guitarist at the funeral played this song and invited us to sing along. So fun to sing Eric Clapton at my elderly mother's funeral! It was a toe tapping event, with Fly Me To the Moon, and another song called LOVE. L is for the way you Look at me. O is for the Only one I see. V is very, very extraordinary E is Even more than anyone that you adore can. Everyone was singing and clapping. I think Mom would have liked it!
I’m sitting with my 29 year old daughter today in Hospice. She has very little time left. We played this song at my Mother’s service in 2001 when she passed from cancer. My little girl had a special bond with my Mother. Soon they will be back together. 🙏🏼😢💔
this was one of my dad's favorite songs. He loved Eric Clapton and loved The Beatles. He died 2 days ago, on my daughters 1st birthday. I love you, Dad.
Thank you for your comments and constant support has brought me this far. Keep Supporting ❤️Please send me a mail via +1 (251) 494-4704 or eclapton497@gmail.com
So Sad... He is singing it to his young son he lost! Can't help but feel his pain!! Still don't understand how he can sing this so Beautifully Without breaking down!! We can't even listen with out a flood of tears Thank you Eric for sharing your Heart!!
Normally I don’t cry when I read comments like this. But can you please stop typing: I hope your happy up there, or something like that, my eyes creates an entire ocean for some reason..
The loss of anyone you love is extremely difficult. i am sorry for your loss. Only time will help you cope. Some people say time will heal but i dont think we ever heal, we just cope.
Geo M. I agree with your statement about coping and not healing. It’s like you learn to accept the pain and the void. I’ve lost many people but my close friend/one time boyfriend was murdered in 2012 and as strange as it sounds, I don’t want the pain to go away. If it did, I’d feel like I was forgetting him.
I have lost so many and Eric did too. Now I hope he is in heaven with Conor and when I pass, I will be in heaven with all the ones I loved and miss. as well. If you read this hug the ones you love time goes so fast and you never know how long they have or you have . Eric inspired me and I also loved his music. I also play it as well. I have cried so many tears and hope there are no more tears in heaven . May they all RIP
When the time comes, always remember: It is more painful for those who stay, than for those who leave. Be sorry for them, happy for you. Your journey in this world is over, time to start anew in another. Sorry for all those who lost someone and came to this song looking for something they know they're missing, but not sure what. I myself don't come here because I lost someone, but because I empathyze deeply with those who have. If we don't care about each other, no one will care for us.
Those are the words of Christ Jesus He said why do you weep for me? Your only weep for yourselves (paraphrasing) I kept that very close to me and still do God bless you
I lost my Mum in December after a short battle with cancer, we played this song at her funeral, my grandma couldn't take this shock and passed away 19 days later on the 26th of December. RIP Mummy and Mama 🙏
I know his pain. I lost to my 6 year old, my son Noah. It was cancer. I listen to this when I am trying really hard to stay here without him. This song saved my life this year
A week and a half ago, my grandfather passed away. At the age of 93, he ended his journey, having decided to stop eating and wait for the end of his life, as he didn’t want to burden his family with caring for his illness. Drafted twice into the Korean War, once for his brother, he dedicated his entire life to his family and risked his life for the Republic of Korea. He gave me many wise words that allowed me to have dreams and hopes, and he has always been my hero. I hope he enjoy his new journey in heaven alongside grandmother. Grandpa Park Byung-hwan, I love you.
When Eric lost his son I don’t know how he kept his composure singing this song. I would be so choked up and crying. I know Clapton is probably the best guitar player ever to live. And music always set your soul free from whatever your feeling.
I think Clapton did undergo several stages including denial and depression before writing this song. What matters is instead of just keeping grief inside him, he decided to share his feelings through music. This song is sad inside but with some relatively positive and relaxing notes, and it's one of the first few guitar songs I've ever systematically learned. This alone means a lot to me.
@LikeTalkingToAWall have you ever heard the saying if you have nothing nice to say then keep your mouth shut, no one really cares to read your hateful, distastful comments, apparently you have never suffered a personal loss, a loved one taken away, the lose of a child is extremely, brutally hard, it is not the natural order of things, we are not supposed to bury our children, they are supposed to bury us, everybody deals with heartache differently, eric produced one of the most heart felt songs of all time, i am positive he would be happier to have his son around and never had to do this song, he is a musician/song writer thats what he does, he threw him self into his work to over come a tragedy, a tragedy that i would wish on no one, and because he earned money from that you, want to leave your insensitive comments, do the world a favor, and just keep your mouth shut.
My mother died when I was only 6 years old and now I'm 15 years old. every time I think of her or my family and I talk about her, my tears really flow. I always pray to the Lord. I tell the Lord that he will take care of my mother. I also tell him everything I want to say to my mom. I also say that I wish I could dream of my mom at least once because I really miss her and I want to hug her again. I always think about how it feels to have a mom, someone to take care of you, someone to help you, someone to support you, and most of all someone who loves you. I miss her so much. so you guys if your loved ones are still alive, do everything to make them happy, appreciate them, and love them every day.
Hi, may this words from the Bible bring tou some peace : With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away ap 21 : 3,4...
Alona...your mum's passed from this earth, but she's not dead. My dad died when I was 3, he's got in touch with me three times, now, and my grandma I was so close to. Just talk to your mum, maybe as you go to bed. She'll hear you, my father certainly heard me..
My dad's a musician... always did Clapton covers on the guitar. I have memories of him strumming & singing this.. I was a child. Now I understand the song. ....we're losing my mom. Dad can't even look at a guitar right now... so here i am, listening to the original. And finding tragic (albeit unfortunate) comfort in the comments. Only because I'm not alone in breaking down. .. ♡♥︎♡ Blessings & love to you reading this & to your loved one as well
i just lost my older brother almost a month ago.. to a condition of him being born with half of his heart being able to function he was my best friend and i miss him so much. he was 17 and i’m 16. next year, i’ll be the age that he passed away at, and i honestly don’t think i’m ready for it. we were supposed to graduate together since he started school late. but now i’m going to graduate for him. and he was the most brightest light in the room, always trying to make the rest of my huge family smile. he’d always dap me up and it just hurts extremely bad that i’ll never ever be able to talk to him again about our future or dap him up everytime i see him i’ve never heard this song before, but i’ve known of it and it’s just so beautifully written. i’d love to write a song like this, i just have no idea where to start 😅 but this is an amazing song❤
30 YEARS AGO, today, I held my first child (who was stillborn) for the first, last, and only time. Every year, on May 31st, the hurt of that loss feels just as it did that day. The only thing that has brought me comfort is knowing that my grandmother was there to greet my son when he went to Heaven, and will take care of him until I'm able to be with him again. Rest in peace, Liam Joshua-Evander Licea. Happy 30th Birthday in Heaven.
Yeah, that's what tears me up. I'm in for an eternity of suffering and misery and burning; like, an eternity. It's an incomprehensible concept for humans. Even Heaven, if it's truly for eternity; sounds miserable. And I'll burn simply because I can't bring myself to believe in the Christian god. Your line about "the only thing that has brought me comfort" really shined a light on that for me. Makes sense why it's stuck around for so long. I'm glad you can find comfort in it though through your tragedy. I truly do wish I could. I've tried... even read the King James. Still wish there was a more loving god who didn't punish non-believers like we're murderers or rapists. Well, the murderers/rapists that don't repent.
My stepmom passed away at the end of January anybody else would say I understand how you feel but honestly I can't say that because the memories that you had with that person I was not there for I do send my condolences though
My next door neighbors mom just died after a 3 year battle with non small cell lung cancer and we were family we went on vacation together and Me and her daughter have been friends since we were born I send you all my prayers may she Rest In Peace 😔
We was never able to get a long growing up my father and I everything was always a debate with him and everybody else it all started when he joined the army growing up he was never around so my obsession was the service
I know you're crying while listening to this song. Whatever makes you cry please know that I love you. If ever in the future you'll read this, I hope you're happy and doing what you really love. love, your younger self❤
This song has kept me from suicide so many times. When I get to the point, I'm losing it and setting alone in the dark with my thoughts and my gun, I have to listen to this and look at pictures of my daughter. Your song has saved my life so many times Mr Clapton. Thank you. And even though my daughter doesn't know my mental state of being, I'm sure she would appreciate this song as I do because it's saved her daddy's life so so many times. God Bless you.
@@oxXAdvanceXxo thank you for that. I just get to the point sometimes that I just lose all hope. Thank God I have a daughter, I think she is my Guardian Angel. I believe God sent her to me to keep me strong when I am my weakest. I dunno why, but I just get this dark cloud that comes over me sometimes and I get so fucking depressed and I can't shake it. It just shows up out of nowhere. And it just lingers on and on. I really appreciate your words. I truly do. You didn't have to say anything, but you did. And it wasn't encouraging me to do it. Thank you so much. God bless you
@@molonlabe7590 Please stay strong and stay with us. I'm sorry you feel so depressed sometimes. I hope that you find light at the end of the tunnel and that you are able to be happy.
I recall the very day of that horrible incident, I watched the news in shock, I could not believe a child could fall from a skyscraper and die like that. Eric Clapton and Lory Del Santo have been immensely strong to resist the pain and not lose their mind. Whoever left that window open, has a huge burden on the conscience.
I've had a stillbirth 5 days ago. I could never see my babygirl for whom I was waiting for 9 long months. People keep telling me we will surely meet in heaven someday. I used to listen to this song a lot, I didn’t know someday this would be kind of my own story. This song healed me. Thanks to the creator of this song.
My dad was only 28years of age when he died & my mum was 8 months pregnant with me... So dad.. *Would you know my name, if I saw you in heaven* We will meet each other for the first time one day dad...♡ I'm 62 now...missed & think about him so much every single day.. A beautiful & sad song... sorry for your lost... Eric Clapton 🎸🎤🎶 Thank's...⛧God Bless you⛧ :)
@@melissapulido7405Hi Melissa.. I can't imagine what you went through with the sad loss of your husband like that..It must have been so hard for you then & still to this day.. The positive is that both of you created together a beautiful daughter, he would be so proud & I'm sure he is watching over both of you from above... We can only hope & pray that we will see our love one's again... God Bless you & your daughter... :)
My father died when i was 4 and my mom and my parent really work hard to make me happy even i dont have a father. Now im 16 y old alot of kids on my school always have their dad pick them up or meet them. Its hard to imagine if my dad will still here with me it would be happy if he still here.
Peace and comfort to you my friend. I too just lost my brother to cancer 3/13/24, we celebrated his 44 young birthday on 3/8/24. He is 7 years younger than me. May the Lord continue to carry you and bless you with beautiful memories the 2 of you got to share together.
I cant listen to this song for more than 2 seconds.. as SOON as i hear the strumming, tears start. Im not a cryer, never gave been. This song. Just gets me right in the feels
I lost my Identical twin last April 1st. This was the song played at his memorial, picked by myself. Sung by one of my amazing neices Laura. It was riveting, shuck me to my core. So literally amazing. Her 10 year old son Austin played the cello separately. My nephew Jason spoke the eulogy. It was truly unbelievable. I talked to my brother the last 6 months of his time here on Earth. He felt like he was all alone, brother so many amazing people stopped everything to show you praise.
One of the most moving and sad songs ever written and sang, with a heartfelt tribute by Eric Clapton to his son who died after falling off from a tower block window, and a truly fitting song to remember those loved ones who have died. I lost my mother in November, and although she was 97 and had had a very long life, it still is very, very sad and heartbreaking. I still shed tears and I hope one day to see her again.
"me estremece esta canción,pero yo sé que está en maravilloso lugar rodeada de ángeles como ella pues ella solo tenía 3 meses seguirás por siempre en mi corazón,hija mía te quiero y te querré hasta que volvamos a estar juntas ya para siempre 💔💔💔
For me this song represents the loss of my son at 20 days old. He spent his entire life in 3 hospitals/ in 2 states. We did everything we could to get him the best doctors and treatment possible. In the end it was not to be, he had a massive brain hemorrhage.. we spent that last day holding him tightly, trying to memorize every smell, sound and how he felt in our arms. Having the machines turned off was one of the most difficult things I have ever been through. As well as trying to explain tonhis big sister (age 3) why her baby brother couldn't come home with us. He would (should) be turning 20 this November.
Yikes! And l was thinking of singing to my son on his 15th Birthday? Geeeeez. I see a different twist to this lyrics. I guess they speak of love and hope to me. Hmmmm?
I lost my daughter not even a week ago. This song just popped in my head. It’s perfect for the moment right now. If only I could just go to heaven to tell her I love her and goodbye and be good. This pain is too great too bear sometimes.
There are no words for losing a son/daughter. I feel your pain, my boy letf us at 6 years old two years ago and i remember him every day. I'm sorry for your loss.
my precious baby girl was born April 5, 2017 and gained her wings April 22, 2017. I played this at her funeral, cuz I wanna know will she still know me and hold my hand in Heaven. it is a healing song because I have hope now that I will see her again.
A new precious angel in the sky. I'm sure that she will change your pain in protection and love. I'm here, probably from the other side of the world but I'm criyn' for your baby. You are my brother, man!
Shantae Dixon this was played for my baby sisters funeral she was a stillborn i was listening to my music and this song randomly came on it wasn't even on the playlist it was just her saying hi I guess.... my heart hurts and my eyes are watery while typing this shed be 6 now and I'm going to visit her prayer feather on the 25th
yo daddy it's a beautiful song!!!!! and yes it was her telling you she's near still. my baby girl shows me too on days I miss her the most!. Praying for all the baby angels among us!!!!
Sorry for your loss! I played "Noah Gundersen & The forest rangers - Day is Gone" at my daughters funeral. Different kind of pain. Wish you the best Shantae.
As a parent going through this... Mr. Clapton, I know you won't ever hear this, but thank you. This hurts so much man. To make this song to help us walk this road, to know I'm not alone.. thank you so very much Mr. Clapton.
I am sorry I can’t imagine losing a daughter or a son, but you need to stay strong! I know it is difficult I have been through loss too, but I know your daughter/son wouldn’t like you to stop just go on, it is okay to remember and to be sad but… go..on
I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope things are better now even slightly. I hope that you've gained a bit of closure. God bless and all the best! Please take care of yourself! I leave you with this quote in the hope of comforting you: "The dead have no desire but the happiness of the living."
My beautiful baby boy was born sleeping on November 21st 2024. I only held Him in My arms for a short while but I'll hold Him in My heart forever. Daddy will always love You My little angel. Until We meet again sleep tight. 💔💔❤️❤️
This song is for Christie beachum my niece and nephew mom that died almost a year ago I think of her everyday and have never stopped thinking of her but I know I have her with me BC of my niece and nephew she has not left me all the way we still have her with us BC of her kids I'll never stop thinking of her aways

My son passed away several months ago from a heart attack at the age of 47. Actually he was my stepson, but I raised him and his sister ever since he was less than a year old and his sister was 3. He was a wonderful son,husband, and father. I see him in my 4 beautiful granddaughters whenever they visit. My heart hurts every time that I see them. RIP Jamey, I miss you and will be with you again one day. Love you son!
really sorry to hear this. We are here to support you
Sorry for your loss

Dear Sunshine,
there are no words to take youre prain...but I can tell u too 100% that u will see him again, if u want to, the death is just an illusion I could you explain that but I would need much time for that and I dont know u...try to speak with youre son trough youre brain ....send him love, tell him how u feel, tell him, he can "speak" with u too, but guess there will be no voice in youre head, guess he will communicate with feelings ...and other things ...just be mindful and open
If u have any question I'll answer.
I love u and wish u the best!
(I LOVE EVERYONE....but most people dont know this kind of love)

I lost my sister May 15, 2024 to cancer. Myself and my family are still grieving for her. I know we will see our family members again.
My condolences to you dear. I just lost my dear sister last 2 weeks of breast cancer.
My first-born little girl was born with no lungs in '98. She lived just a few minutes but she taught her Daddy a whole lot about life and LOVE in her short time. God has poured blessings, grace and mercy on this house. I will thank him all my days.
Sorry for your loss. I was also born in 1998. I am my parents youngest daughter. They love me so much.
My son lived 22, regardless he stayed many years away from us, he taught us about kindness, hope, love, happiness, injustice, hard work and so on, his legacy is immaterial but I furiously hold it tight as my lifejacket in the middle of the stormy live I am. Thank you for sharing your experience.
My daughter was born Feb 25th 2024 bug I just found out bout her a few weeks ago. I will think of you when I see her
This song makes me cry all on it's own but your comment brought me to my knees. Bless you and your husband, I pray you have a healthy child in the future.
A. child can teach unconditional love in way an adult cannot. We a. ll need to learn and live that.
My son was killed in a freak accident in 1972-that is more than 50 yrs ago. I still miss him, his smile, laughter, and his hug; still cry about him. Hopefully, I won't have any more tears in heaven! Love this song. Thank you, Eric Clapton!
❤❤❤❤ I hope you will find some peace… big virtual hug to you
😢❤
I lost my son too. It still hurts every day. I lost my daughter too, we played this song at her funeral. Some wounds are not healed by time. Saying a prayer for you. ❤❤
How did he die
Loss of a love is very deeply felt in the heart. I lost sisters an my dad who I know cherished me and their family. To this day I miss them deeply. At tines my grief hits hard. Which is hard bc I grief in silence all alone bc it feels more real.
He wrote this song to help himself grieve, but he did not know that he would help so many other people do the same ♡
Hello 👋🏻 Anna how are you doing
@@pianist-yx6otDuh....read only 20 of the comments.
YOU NEED HELP
@@laurakibben4147he just wanted attention
Yes Lord
My dad passed away 20 hours ago. He loved eric clapton. And was a huge music fan in general, its where i get it from. Music from all generations and genres. He used to regularly blare his fave music out of these huge speakers that he had hooked up to a whole sound system in the house. He'd sing along and bust out in random dances and it'd make doing mundane household chores and such much more fun for himself as well as everyone else. This song has always reminded me of him. So i tried to listen to it just now, to try and feel close to him. I only got 30 seconds in tho. I saw another comment here, from someone else who has lost their dad a few years ago. But is only recently able to listen to this song. I hope i too can listen to this song, and many many others that he loved an introduced me to, and smile again instead of cry.
I also hope everyone in these comments who's struggling, hurting or going through anything rn, finds some solace and peace in this beautiful song. Enjoy it for the ones who can't right now. And enjoy it for the ones who are no longer here to enjoy it with us.
when your father reaches heaven, he may have the best seat in the house and,,,,,, Hendrix and Steve Ray may be hanging out with him afterwards
My condolences to you. I lost my father 18 years ago today. He was also an EricClapton fan with an eclectic taste in music and there are times when I can listen to this song and just smile at the memories it brings. Today is not one of those times. Even after 18 years grief can still take your breath away. Stay strong friend 🧡
Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family, I certainly understand how you feel losing both my parents, Pray that someday when its our time God will reunite us with our loved ones, again my thoughts to you and yours
My dad died this morning. He was also huge fan of Eric Clapton. Funeral is next friday a we will play this song for him to say goodbye. :(
I certainly understand how you feel, my condolences go out to you and other family members, I will pray that every day after will give you the strength to make it in life, You chose a right song to dedicate to your fathers passing, like I said before I lost both my parents, prayers go out to you and other family members
My little girl died 23 years ago, aged 4. This song still makes me cry for her every time. I still miss her

I'm a son losing his father to alzheimers and this resonates with me too. Last night when I came to visit him, he asked me who I was for the first time. He's barely 60 and lives now at an institution having been diagnosed 7 years ago. I desperately need him to remember me and for him to know that I recently became a father myself. He was the best father, and never once let me think other than that my sister and I were the most important things for him - and he never ever said no when I needed him.
I remember once, when I was 19 and living in another town - and he called me on a saturday evening. I had just gotten a proper manflu and complained that I had no painkillers, or even soda. Wouldn't you think - a few hours later he knocked on my door with a mix of concern and wolfish grin that only he could accomplish. Then he drove me home to his place and took care of me. How the hell do I cope??
I'm so, so sorry. Losing a parent is so much harder than we are led to believe.
You will because you have to and because he would want you to. I know it's hard but he would want you to pick up the pieces and carry on. He would want you to be happy and you''ll be happy again one day and I promise that you'll treasure your memories of him.
There is hope, a carnivore diet, being in ketosis helps the brain run on ketones. See Videos by Dr Anthony Chaffee MD, Thursdays you can ask questions it's pacific time, I think 9P. There is more, but I'll try to do tomorrow. Coconut oil powder> MCT in a drink is a great help too.
@@janonthemtn be wary of things that'll give you false hope mate. The world is full of people with simple solutions to complex problems. They've never worked before, and I doubt your Chaffee is the one to disturb that trend.

My brother died 4 months ago in a car accident a week before his birthday he was going to be 19. I didn’t get to see him much because we don’t live with our parents and he ended up living with my uncle while I lived with my grandma. I’ve been missing him a lot and trying to accept it it’s just so hard. I’m feeling for everyone in the comments. Prayers sent to you all.
Sorry, thats so sad.

So sorry for your loss. Some of us just die before our time without any understanding why . 18 is just too young to die and never gotten to truly experience life.
Always he is with you your are life and so is he eternally connected
My brother died at 18 and this song always reminds me more of when my mother first heard this song on MTV back when it was released her getting emotional listening to it. The words speak so true but I believe we'll all see them some day. Peace from New York 🙋♂️

I'm so sorry
He’s gonna come back soon and beat the shit out of cancer.
(The metaphor there is that his ghost will aide in the discovery of a cure for his specific cancer form. Which probably hasn’t happened yet but it will)
He’s gonna make cancer look like a little bitch
That is very touching outlook. Thank you for sharing it.
Yes Sir
My deepest condolences. May God welcome him back home.
I played this song at my daughters funeral. She was 3 yrs old. 24 yrs ago i still cry
This hits very hard for me. I just turned 23, so she was not much older than me. I am so very sorry for your loss. 😢
@@mcdc700 So not much older than him?
@@nicholasstokes8739 oh my god I am an idiot. I apologize.
I know it's hard but go live life without her.
Life is hard and everyone has a moment where they are forgotten.
Go try to get remembered in a different way. Hey, maybe go try making a song like this man made.
💞💞💞💞😥
My wife and my son are now in Heaven. May this wonderful song reach them and tell them that I miss them so much, that I still love them and that I will always love them 💔
😢sorry my friend. You will see them again in heaven. ❤
May the Lord and Lady watch over you...
I’m absolutely certain of ever single thing you stated. They know of this song , and they can feel your love. That’s the power of both- they reach beyond this physical plane. I am thinking deeply and sending prayers for you, them and all those who well see again one day. We’ll know our names i Predict as well. Please take care and be well my friend ❤
❤
Lost my girlfriend in march mate, I feel for you. Stay strong it all works out in the end, trust me, I have experienced trauma my entire life. They can be incredible catalysts for positive change if you allow it
My son died in an accident in 1993 when he was almost 3. This was the song we played at his funeral. Its the most memorable song in my life
🖤
I just lost my brother. I only come to this song when it's absolutely necessary. And if you came here to grieve, now that you're not alone.
I will be praying for you. I’m so sorry for your loss.
🙏🙏🙏
Didn't get the chance to meet my brother, cause he was 2 years older than me.
I can't even get through the first stanza without crying
You’re never alone my friend
I lost my brother too and I miss him so much
I lost my dad due to covid. He was 61, it was so unexpected, one day we had the best talk we could ever have had and the next talk was through a videocall before he got intubated. Miss him so much
F
You'll see him again one day, sorry for your loss🙏
I'm so sorry for your loss 😢 take care 🥀
Sorry for your loss, I loss my dad due to Stroke 7 months ago, still in pain
I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my dad to covid also. One day he was here the next he was gone. So sudden. 💔
My only brother who had asperger's syndrome died on the 29th of August 2015 4 days before his 27th birthday, just nearly 3 weeks ago. We laid him to rest 3 days ago, and this song was chosen by his father, my dad. Me and my brother Jamie were both adopted from different families because my parents could not naturally have children. Burying one of them so soon in their lives has been horrendous. I want to ask everyone to remember that the next time you come across someone in your life who may be a little odd, or strange, please do not dismiss them. We should all be kind to one another. It is what is going to keep this world turning. My brother's resilience toward the cruelty of society and amazing spirit inspires empathy and bravery in me. Jamie, you are my hero. And I will love you always. Eric thank you for helping to bring my father some closure with this beautiful song and aiding in the peaceful respite for all of us. He leaves behind his 5 year old son, who turned 5 on the same day as his daddy would have turned 27. We love and miss Jamie so much.
+Indigo Papillon Well said, may your brother rest in peace
+ghoste snipe So sorry to hear this, hope you and your family are doing alright. We all know how losing someone feels, I wish you all the best.
Thank you guys xo
You absoultely had me in tears. I, a fellow asperger. give you my condolences
+Indigo Papillon
God bless you. May you have a long healthy life.
Deeply sorry for your childs passing.Lord bless this women and her family.
Lyrics :
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 you 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
Thank you. Very helpful ❤
❤❤❤
So sad... but I would sing, though:
"'Cause I know I do belong here in heaven!"
@@SFERREZsi pertenecieran al cielo no cantarlas nada. Cantas porque perteneces a la tierra.
Thanks for the “Tears in Heaven” lyrics, I could tag along to sing.🙏
I lost my wife 2 weeks ago from covid-19. The feeling of having to watch the love of your life slowly choke to death, alone in icu and not being able to do anything about it...is indescribably horrific and it tore a hole in me. She tried to call me while I was at work, before they sedated her because knew she wasn't coming back. I missed her calls due to the poor reception where I work. She left her sister a message to give me saying "tell trinity that I love him.". I loved her more than I ever thought I could love someone. And although my heart still beats... I died with her in icu that day. RIP Kathryn Bernard. I hope you know how much you meant to me. I miss you so much, it literally hurts me. I would have done anything to rewind time long enough to have been able to answer when you called. If I could only go back in time long enough to give you one last painful kiss.
I’m sorry for your loss🥺😞
I feel your pain. I got to see my dad in the ICU (Covid as well) when he was in a sedated state, and he passed a day later. My condolences
Covid is God’s wrath for disobedience. Please repent before the Messiah’s return. Please
@@KN-ob8hm Shut your mouth.
@@KN-ob8hm... She was a born again Christian and loved the Lord. In revelations, the 21 judgements which were divided into 3 groups of 7 (7 seals, 7 trumpets, 7 bowls)... Those are indeed God's wrath on the nations. However, those obviously haven't happened yet according to the prophetic biblical timeline. If anything... You could say that covid 19 was a standard Corona virus that has been possibly genetically modified for reasons of population control, or maybe wasn't genetically modified, but used as a fear machine to drive the global majority to stand in line to get vaccinated... But God's wrath? You should spend more time in learning scripture... And not passing judgment on people you know nothing about.
Watched my dad pass today, while I was hugging him and telling him to go be with mom. I also told him that I'll be ok, and everything will be ok. He took his last breaths right in front of me. I've cried and cried today, over and over, but I'm happy that he's finally at peace and with my mom again.
My condolences 🙏
My condolences to you!!
Bless you and your parents
I’m sorry man
Sorry for your lose
When I was about 5 my mom would play this soothing song for me before bed and run my back. She died when I was 7 from suicide. I searched for this song for years. I remember her once telling me the story about the songs meanings but I didn’t remember it or any of the lyrics since I was so young. I searched for the song for years hoping to hear the decades old tune that my mom loved so much. This is the song!
The story behind the song: "Tears in Heaven" by Eric Clapton
Eric Clapton and Italian model Lore del Santo welcomed baby Conor into the world on August 21, 1986.
On March 19, 1991, Eric took Conor to the circus. It turned out to be the most special days they'd ever spend together as father and son.
At the time, Eric was struggling with alcohol addiction, but it was his desire to be a good dad that get helped him get non-indulgent to alcohol.
"When he was born, I was drinking and he was really the big reason that I went back to treatment because I really did love this boy," he recalled.
"I know he's a little baby, but he can see what I'm doing, and I'm tired of this. I realized I had to break the chain and give him what I never really had - a father," said Clapton.
The next morning, as Clapton was due to arrive to pick up Conor for another day out, this time to the Bronx Zoo and lunch at an Italian restaurant. Conor was running around the 53rd apartment in the New York high-raise building. A janitor had been working on the windows in the living room but one was still open. Clapton called out to the nanny to watch the child, but before she could react, Conor dashed past her, jumped out on the low window-ledge where he'd normally press his nose against the glass. He fell out of an open window from the 53rd floor. They said the window, about six feet high and four feet wide, was left open after it was cleaned by a housekeeper.
The devastating news made headlines around the world, and threw Eric into a tailspin.
"I remember looking at this beautiful face in repose and thinking, 'This isn't my son. It looks a bit like him, but he's gone.' " Clapton said.
However unknown to most people is that after Eric Clapton attended Conor's funeral in 1991, he quietly received a letter that would leave him speechless.
Conor wrote him a letter. Telling him how much he loved and missed him whenever he was away.
When Clapton was finally able to pick up a guitar again, he started arranging chords with the vision of his golden-haired son in his head. Before he knew it, he had written 'Tears in Heaven' as a tribute to his son, which would go on to be one of the greatest hits of the 90's and of his career. He also began raising awareness for childproofing windows and staircases.
In 2004, Clapton no longer plays "Tears in Heaven" live, having stated that he has moved past the emotional distress that inspired the song.
"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 there in heaven."
Eric Clapton will jennings wrote tears in heaven
Thanks for the Great Summary bro!Happy Fathers Day❤️❣️🎉
Leonardo Facunla Happy Father’s day to you as well buddy
I thought it was the janitor who called to the nanny to watch him? Clapton wasn't even there yet was my understanding.
I can't stop crying about this story after I read the story of Conor Clapton 😪💔
Would you know my name?
If I saw you in heaven
Would it be the same?
If I saw you in heaven

Thank you for the lyrics

For all those who have lost someone. There is hope and faith and it’s here in Heaven!
I'm really sad. I wiil pry for him
Eric Clapton..the biggest British white nationalist d - head in the lot...the man who made his entire living and Fame off of Black Blues is a massive racist...😑

I lost my 9 year old daughter in 1997. She was murdered by one of my best friends. I had this song played at her funeral and I cried and cried that day. All these years later I still cry my eyes out when I hear this song. My little girl is in Heaven and one day I will see her again. God Bless you sweetheart!!
I'm so so sorry for you 😢🥰
😢😢😢

My Daddy was a huge fan of Eric Clapton. He passed away 3 years ago from suicide and tonight was the first time I was able to listen to this song. I must be strong & carry on... I love & miss you so much Daddy. 8/15/54-2/22/21 😢🕊️💕
Say the Lord's prayer every day for your father and the forgiveness of his sins. Our heavenly Father loves him, Jesus loves him, and the Holy Spirit understands and loves him. ✝️
Molina, how are you now? I just read about your bitter lost. I only can think about how you feel, some friends of mine committed suicide and a son of an old friend of me, too. But I, in person, didn't have to through this unbelievable pain. But: can I do anything for you? Write me here, we'll find a way. You needn't be totally alone. I'm only a woman, but…perhaps better than noone or easier than someone too close. May God bless you, I believe in Him in any situation and that is the begin of help for me.
I'd never say you have to believe, too.
@@ConnyNordlicht I lost a close uncle of mine to cancer in October, and had my now ex-fiance sabotage our relationship. Been focusing on myself through music, martial arts, and God. Day by day I'm doing better.

My dad brought me here, lost him 3 nights ago to Covid at the young age of 67. He was my role model.

To my dad, who lost his long battle with depression at 48. I miss you every single day and I hope I make you proud.
You did champ
My mother did as well @44. I sympathize with anyone that loses a parent this way. The pain they were suffering is now their children’s pain. So hard to get past.
Omg. I am sorry to know that. I am struggling now myself very hard with major depression but no one care and understand what I am going trough....been years
@Eve hyland no I have no kids. Everynight I couldnt sleep well, have nightmare, and everyday being hopeless. But here no one care I mean they think I made it up like drama. I dont like to go outside except I need things to be done or buy something. Not interest to talk to others, since I am being rejected by people who closed to me. I spent most of my day in the house, in my room with my cat.
@@bookiner the same thing happens to me. I dont see my girfliend by two weeks now. I dont leave my house and no one understands how I feel. She doesnt want to see me becouse she things that I am making a drama or something. I dont want to lose her but I thing it will happen soon if I dont change. Im already with no job and full of credit card debs. Dont know how to get over it (sorry for my english)
My brother Charlie passed away exactly a week ago from Covid-19, ever since he was tested positive and was put in isolation in the hospital, my biggest fear was knowing the fact that i will never be able to meet him in person again until he is fully recovered. 29th of March 11.30 Pm i made a video call with my brother giving him as much of moral support as i can, he still jokingly said that he could beat the disease despite his weary face and deteriorating condition. And on 30th of March a news came to my family that he passed away... The fact that we weren’t able to even see his body for the last time up until his funeral adds to our sorrow even more.... My thoughts and prayers are always with Charlie and all the people who died of this horrible disease, as to everybody else, please take care of your safety and health, stay home no matter what happened, this difficult time will pass sooner or later.... Edit: I never got this much like on the comment section, and i thank all of you from the deepest bottom of my heart for your kind condolences, and i also pray you all can pass this pandemic hardtime, take good care of yourself and your loved ones. Once again, Bless all of you....
My deepest condolences to you and his family.
Sorry for your loss may him RIP 🙏🏼
My condolences, I just lost my grandmother today, from other health issues. I understand the pain of not being able to see them in person. I am glad you were able to have that video call with him, I am certain you will cherish that moment.
My deepest condolences to you and your family. May your brother rest in peace. Please take care of your family.

When my mom died this is the song my dad learned to play on the guitar. He would play it almost every night for a long time and then break down crying. Every time I hear it I think of my mom and it feels like she died just yesterday. All can do is just learn how to live with it each day.
I am listening to this thinking of my Dad. In my heart, he will always be with me.
Same with me, this song makes me strong when I lose a father I love.
I did the exact same thing when my mom died in 2002 learned this song and jammed it every single day...
Cannot hear this and not be overwhelmed by the sorrow of losing her to this day....almost 20yrs passed now.
So much human love between your mum and dad! Glad you have this memory
@@Casatoman he is giving you good advices when you need them most
A message to the future generations..Don’t let this masterpiece song die....
A song of sorrow
I just learned it but 3 hours ago it changed my life
a message for annoying fvcks like you - stop copy pasting those generic comments to every popular song
Definitely not !! I learned how to play this over 20 years ago and it was and is the one song that all my friends still ask me to play.
@@ServantofChrist81 I just purchased a Martin d-28 bc of this song and “the needle and the damage done.” There’s something deeply moving and powerful about the acoustic vibration waves and their entanglement with the quantum realm Ive surmised

My uncle just passed away yesterday from kidney failure. My 96 year old grandmother has already buried all 4 of her brothers and sisters, her husband, her oldest, and youngest son. Having to stand there by her side as she watched her only remaining son take his last breath was just absolutely devastating. The pain in her voice as she leaned over, kissed his forehead and said one last prayer for him was enough to bring even the strongest man to tears. This woman has suffered so much pain through her lifetime. She has lost almost everyone she holds dear. And yet, through it all, has never lost faith in God and has remained the kindest, most gentlest soul I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. In 34 years, I've never once seen her lose her temper, get angry, upset, scream, or yell. She always puts everyone else's needs ahead of her own and is just the epitome of what it means to be a loving mother and grandmother. I have listened to this song much in the past but it just hits you so much harder after suffering a loss. You can't make it through its' entirety without having to choke down the tears. God bless you Eric Clapton. God bless you Mommom. RIP uncle Barry. You will be sorely missed. Everyone will be reunited one day then there will be no more Tears in Heaven.
God bless you and yours
I lost my beloved husband to cancer 2 years ago. This song always brought tears to my eyes every time I hear it. It is one of the song that reminds me of my husband! He is my angel now. R.I.P always my love!

wow ... its just hard to read your comment i cant imagine witnessing this...
She is a legend in my eyes ❤ , stay strong grandma love u
I have an angel in heaven. She was six years old. I'm learning to play this song and it comforts me. Thank you, Mr. Clapton. Did you ever imagine your broken heart would help mine?

This is so sad. My kids are 9, 4 and 2 and I can just imagine the amount of pain you must be going through. I believe that our Creator has a reason for everything and He/She (Creator) might just have the biggest pain in seeing how you suffer because of your daughters death because He created us with love in His image. But He has a reason for everything and a purpose for everyone... I believe your daughter would want you to be with her in the eternal resting place created for us all... RIP to your daughter and find peace in the Creator as He might want you to see the bigger picture and find your purpose from this...
Joann I bet she's very happy now and shining with God, hope your okay God bless you :)

We buried my mother last week. She was 94. The guitarist at the funeral played this song and invited us to sing along. So fun to sing Eric Clapton at my elderly mother's funeral! It was a toe tapping event, with Fly Me To the Moon, and another song called LOVE.
L is for the way you Look at me.
O is for the Only one I see.
V is very, very extraordinary
E is Even more than anyone that you adore can.
Everyone was singing and clapping. I think Mom would have liked it!
I’m sitting with my 29 year old daughter today in Hospice. She has very little time left. We played this song at my Mother’s service in 2001 when she passed from cancer. My little girl had a special bond with my Mother. Soon they will be back together. 🙏🏼😢💔
So sorry.
As he says there will be no more tears in heaven. Bless you brother.
You will see her again one day!! God bless you ❤

thank you john, much appreciated.
So sorry 😢 I lost my sister 2 months ago, 46 years old she didn't wake up 💔😢👭
The loss of anyone you love is extremely difficult. i am sorry for your loss. Only time will help you cope. Some people say time will heal but i dont think we ever heal, we just cope.
Geo M. I agree with your statement about coping and not healing. It’s like you learn to accept the pain and the void. I’ve lost many people but my close friend/one time boyfriend was murdered in 2012 and as strange as it sounds, I don’t want the pain to go away. If it did, I’d feel like I was forgetting him.
I have lost so many and Eric did too. Now I hope he is in heaven with Conor and when I pass, I will be in heaven with all the ones I loved and miss. as well. If you read this hug the ones you love time goes so fast and you never know how long they have or you have . Eric inspired me and I also loved his music. I also play it as well. I have cried so many tears and hope there are no more tears in heaven . May they all RIP
When the time comes, always remember:
It is more painful for those who stay, than for those who leave. Be sorry for them, happy for you. Your journey in this world is over, time to start anew in another.
Sorry for all those who lost someone and came to this song looking for something they know they're missing, but not sure what.
I myself don't come here because I lost someone, but because I empathyze deeply with those who have. If we don't care about each other, no one will care for us.
You know I needed this. Thank you.
Absolutely love this! 🤍😭
Thank you 🙏🏻
Those are the words of Christ Jesus He said why do you weep for me? Your only weep for yourselves (paraphrasing) I kept that very close to me and still do God bless you
God Bless
I lost my Mum in December after a short battle with cancer, we played this song at her funeral, my grandma couldn't take this shock and passed away 19 days later on the 26th of December.
RIP Mummy and Mama 🙏
May they both rest in peace 🙏🕊
A big hug to you. Irreparable losses
So sorry for your losses may they meet up again someday somehow 🙏🏼
Sending all my best wishes and much much love 💜 and ✌️ from Australia 🙏🙏🙏

A week and a half ago, my grandfather passed away. At the age of 93, he ended his journey, having decided to stop eating and wait for the end of his life, as he didn’t want to burden his family with caring for his illness. Drafted twice into the Korean War, once for his brother, he dedicated his entire life to his family and risked his life for the Republic of Korea. He gave me many wise words that allowed me to have dreams and hopes, and he has always been my hero. I hope he enjoy his new journey in heaven alongside grandmother. Grandpa Park Byung-hwan, I love you.
When Eric lost his son I don’t know how he kept his composure singing this song. I would be so choked up and crying. I know Clapton is probably the best guitar player ever to live. And music always set your soul free from whatever your feeling.
I think Clapton did undergo several stages including denial and depression before writing this song. What matters is instead of just keeping grief inside him, he decided to share his feelings through music.
This song is sad inside but with some relatively positive and relaxing notes, and it's one of the first few guitar songs I've ever systematically learned. This alone means a lot to me.
@LikeTalkingToAWall have you ever heard the saying if you have nothing nice to say then keep your mouth shut, no one really cares to read your hateful, distastful comments, apparently you have never suffered a personal loss, a loved one taken away,
the lose of a child is extremely, brutally hard, it is not the natural order of things, we are not supposed to bury our children, they are supposed to bury us, everybody deals with heartache differently, eric produced one of the most heart felt songs of all time, i am positive he would be happier to have his son around and never had to do this song,
he is a musician/song writer thats what he does, he threw him self into his work to over come a tragedy, a tragedy that i would wish on no one, and because he earned money from that you, want to leave your insensitive comments, do the world a favor, and just keep your mouth shut.
@LibertarianOrLibertine he wasn't on the premises at the time
Same year and month we lost my sister , my dad never recovered from it this was his favorite song ...
@tangled up in blue yeah my dad said J.J. Cale was a talented guy too. Kinda like a Clapton.
My mother died when I was only 6 years old and now I'm 15 years old. every time I think of her or my family and I talk about her, my tears really flow. I always pray to the Lord. I tell the Lord that he will take care of my mother. I also tell him everything I want to say to my mom. I also say that I wish I could dream of my mom at least once because I really miss her and I want to hug her again.
I always think about how it feels to have a mom, someone to take care of you, someone to help you, someone to support you, and most of all someone who loves you. I miss her so much.
so you guys if your loved ones are still alive, do everything to make them happy, appreciate them, and love them every day.
Hi, may this words from the Bible bring tou some peace : With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away ap 21 : 3,4...
Alona...your mum's passed from this earth, but she's not dead. My dad died when I was 3, he's got in touch with me three times, now, and my grandma I was so close to. Just talk to your mum, maybe as you go to bed. She'll hear you, my father certainly heard me..
I pray the same thing too to my father
Alona.....please keep Praying....always..asking GOD for THE guidance, direction, protection, ans wisdom to HELP you to make good choices in life
@@seventhchild7270 Amen, Angela, He will wipe away our tears..
My dad's a musician... always did Clapton covers on the guitar. I have memories of him strumming & singing this.. I was a child. Now I understand the song. ....we're losing my mom. Dad can't even look at a guitar right now... so here i am, listening to the original. And finding tragic (albeit unfortunate) comfort in the comments. Only because I'm not alone in breaking down. ..
♡♥︎♡
Blessings & love to you reading this & to your loved one as well
Stay strong mate
Many blessings to you to
I'm breaking down right now too. Your not alone
Lost my Dad today. 😢
I don't belong here in heaven if I can't see you babe. I love you.
i just lost my older brother almost a month ago.. to a condition of him being born with half of his heart being able to function
he was my best friend and i miss him so much. he was 17 and i’m 16. next year, i’ll be the age that he passed away at, and i honestly don’t think i’m ready for it. we were supposed to graduate together since he started school late. but now i’m going to graduate for him. and he was the most brightest light in the room, always trying to make the rest of my huge family smile. he’d always dap me up and it just hurts extremely bad that i’ll never ever be able to talk to him again about our future or dap him up everytime i see him
i’ve never heard this song before, but i’ve known of it and it’s just so beautifully written. i’d love to write a song like this, i just have no idea where to start 😅
but this is an amazing song❤
30 YEARS AGO, today, I held my first child (who was stillborn) for the first, last, and only time. Every year, on May 31st, the hurt of that loss feels just as it did that day. The only thing that has brought me comfort is knowing that my grandmother was there to greet my son when he went to Heaven, and will take care of him until I'm able to be with him again.
Rest in peace, Liam Joshua-Evander Licea.
Happy 30th Birthday in Heaven.
Que descanse en Paz Liam Joshua Evander Licea😞❤️
My daughter was born on 31st May 2022. She lived for 18 days and left me devoid of everything then after.
God Bless you. Your baby is an Angel that will always watch over you.
Just lost my daughter 3 weeks ago she was stillborn too. We played this at her memorial. Aurora Marie Fankhauser Daddy loves you so much!
Yeah, that's what tears me up. I'm in for an eternity of suffering and misery and burning; like, an eternity. It's an incomprehensible concept for humans. Even Heaven, if it's truly for eternity; sounds miserable. And I'll burn simply because I can't bring myself to believe in the Christian god. Your line about "the only thing that has brought me comfort" really shined a light on that for me. Makes sense why it's stuck around for so long. I'm glad you can find comfort in it though through your tragedy. I truly do wish I could. I've tried... even read the King James. Still wish there was a more loving god who didn't punish non-believers like we're murderers or rapists. Well, the murderers/rapists that don't repent.
My dad died yesterday, this is very important to me. R.I.P. Dad ❤️🙏
My stepmom passed away at the end of January anybody else would say I understand how you feel but honestly I can't say that because the memories that you had with that person I was not there for I do send my condolences though
Kenneth Matherne Ay man I send my condolences to u and ur family I’m very sorry 😔 wish u and ur family well 🙏❤️
My next door neighbors mom just died after a 3 year battle with non small cell lung cancer and we were family we went on vacation together and Me and her daughter have been friends since we were born I send you all my prayers may she Rest In Peace 😔

❤. Love u too, strange.
I sometimes hate people. This comment make me remember people are also wonderful. Thank you
Hugs back
Thank you!
Thanks!
My mom died from COVID in Nov. We sang this song at her funeral. I’ll never hear this song without crying.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I also lost my mom to covid a month ago. So hard. They are better then us. Believe in God.
I'm so sorry for your loss
I also lost MY mom to COVID YESTERDAY, and, like you, I won’t be able to listen to this song without tears streaming down my face.
My husband just pass away because of covid too. This song just breaking my heart
May the departed soul rest easy
This song has kept me from suicide so many times. When I get to the point, I'm losing it and setting alone in the dark with my thoughts and my gun, I have to listen to this and look at pictures of my daughter. Your song has saved my life so many times Mr Clapton. Thank you. And even though my daughter doesn't know my mental state of being, I'm sure she would appreciate this song as I do because it's saved her daddy's life so so many times. God Bless you.
Stay strong! We need you here in this world!
@@oxXAdvanceXxo thank you for that. I just get to the point sometimes that I just lose all hope. Thank God I have a daughter, I think she is my Guardian Angel. I believe God sent her to me to keep me strong when I am my weakest. I dunno why, but I just get this dark cloud that comes over me sometimes and I get so fucking depressed and I can't shake it. It just shows up out of nowhere. And it just lingers on and on. I really appreciate your words. I truly do. You didn't have to say anything, but you did. And it wasn't encouraging me to do it. Thank you so much. God bless you
Please stay 🧡
@@molonlabe7590 Please stay strong and stay with us. I'm sorry you feel so depressed sometimes. I hope that you find light at the end of the tunnel and that you are able to be happy.
She is definitely your guardian angel! Stay strong brother! Life is hard, but you can do it!
I recall the very day of that horrible incident, I watched the news in shock, I could not believe a child could fall from a skyscraper and die like that. Eric Clapton and Lory Del Santo have been immensely strong to resist the pain and not lose their mind. Whoever left that window open, has a huge burden on the conscience.
I've had a stillbirth 5 days ago. I could never see my babygirl for whom I was waiting for 9 long months. People keep telling me we will surely meet in heaven someday. I used to listen to this song a lot, I didn’t know someday this would be kind of my own story. This song healed me. Thanks to the creator of this song.
❤
🖤
Same happened to us in March, no real reason for what happened. Made the 40 weeks and she was gone. God bless you
My dad was only 28years of age when he died & my mum was
8 months pregnant with me...
So dad..
*Would you know my name, if I saw you in heaven*
We will meet each other for the first time one day dad...♡
I'm 62 now...missed & think about him so much every single day..
A beautiful & sad song... sorry for your lost... Eric Clapton 🎸🎤🎶
Thank's...⛧God Bless you⛧ :)
I was 8 months pregnant with my daughter and her father was killed in a car accident at the age of 28. She is 13 years old now😔
@@melissapulido7405Hi Melissa..
I can't imagine what you went through with the sad loss of your husband like that..It must have been so hard for you then & still to this day.. The positive is that both of you created together a beautiful daughter, he would be so proud & I'm sure he is watching over both of you from above... We can only hope & pray that we will see our love one's again... God Bless you & your daughter... :)
Hugs all around
@@FehadBilgramiChannel1
Thank's Fehad for your kind reply.. :)
My father died when i was 4 and my mom and my parent really work hard to make me happy even i dont have a father. Now im 16 y old alot of kids on my school always have their dad pick them up or meet them. Its hard to imagine if my dad will still here with me it would be happy if he still here.
I played this at my brother's funeral in 2008..I still cry my eyes out..a 43 year old baby..😢😢
Bless you, man
Peace and comfort to you my friend.
I too just lost my brother to cancer 3/13/24, we celebrated his 44 young birthday on 3/8/24. He is 7 years younger than me.
May the Lord continue to carry you and bless you with beautiful memories the 2 of you got to share together.
I cant listen to this song for more than 2 seconds.. as SOON as i hear the strumming, tears start. Im not a cryer, never gave been. This song. Just gets me right in the feels
I lost my Identical twin last April 1st. This was the song played at his memorial, picked by myself. Sung by one of my amazing neices Laura.
It was riveting, shuck me to my core. So literally amazing. Her 10 year old son Austin played the cello separately. My nephew Jason spoke the eulogy.
It was truly unbelievable.
I talked to my brother the last 6 months of his time here on Earth. He felt like he was all alone, brother so many amazing people stopped everything to show you praise.
sorry for your loss
One of the most moving and sad songs ever written and sang, with a heartfelt tribute by Eric Clapton to his son who died after falling off from a tower block window, and a truly fitting song to remember those loved ones who have died. I lost my mother in November, and although she was 97 and had had a very long life, it still is very, very sad and heartbreaking. I still shed tears and I hope one day to see her again.
Condolences to you and your family at this sad time.
You will❤
"me estremece esta canción,pero yo sé que está en maravilloso lugar rodeada de ángeles como ella pues ella solo tenía 3 meses seguirás por siempre en mi corazón,hija mía
te quiero y te querré hasta que volvamos a estar juntas ya para siempre 💔💔💔
I'm sure you will see her again. You will be reunited and walk the streets of glory together. God bless you.
For me this song represents the loss of my son at 20 days old. He spent his entire life in 3 hospitals/ in 2 states. We did everything we could to get him the best doctors and treatment possible. In the end it was not to be, he had a massive brain hemorrhage.. we spent that last day holding him tightly, trying to memorize every smell, sound and how he felt in our arms. Having the machines turned off was one of the most difficult things I have ever been through. As well as trying to explain tonhis big sister (age 3) why her baby brother couldn't come home with us.
He would (should) be turning 20 this November.
I just read your history and my heart is broken.
god bless your soul
im from brazil..
@@mariaeduardabueno3968 Thank you very much.
Condolence.
I’m so sorry stay strong, you hear?
so sorry to hear this
Lyrics
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
'Cause I know, I don't belong
Here in heaven
Thank you

Hermosa canción...
Yep. Looking for funeral songs.
Broken hearted. Missing so many loved ones. Would they know my name?? Missing my life. 💔
No
I lost my daughter not even a week ago. This song just popped in my head. It’s perfect for the moment right now. If only I could just go to heaven to tell her I love her and goodbye and be good. This pain is too great too bear sometimes.
So sorry. You can talk to her in heaven any time you know
There are no words for losing a son/daughter. I feel your pain, my boy letf us at 6 years old two years ago and i remember him every day. I'm sorry for your loss.
Forever young. Audra Mae
Sending love omg theres nothing harder than that 😥 Love and souls live forever ❤🙏
Stay strong
my precious baby girl was born April 5, 2017 and gained her wings April 22, 2017. I played this at her funeral, cuz I wanna know will she still know me and hold my hand in Heaven. it is a healing song because I have hope now that I will see her again.
be strong brother
A new precious angel in the sky. I'm sure that she will change your pain in protection and love.
I'm here, probably from the other side of the world but I'm criyn' for your baby. You are my brother, man!
Shantae Dixon this was played for my baby sisters funeral she was a stillborn i was listening to my music and this song randomly came on it wasn't even on the playlist it was just her saying hi I guess.... my heart hurts and my eyes are watery while typing this shed be 6 now and I'm going to visit her prayer feather on the 25th
yo daddy it's a beautiful song!!!!! and yes it was her telling you she's near still. my baby girl shows me too on days I miss her the most!. Praying for all the baby angels among us!!!!
Sorry for your loss! I played "Noah Gundersen & The forest rangers - Day is Gone" at my daughters funeral. Different kind of pain. Wish you the best Shantae.
As a parent going through this... Mr. Clapton, I know you won't ever hear this, but thank you. This hurts so much man. To make this song to help us walk this road, to know I'm not alone.. thank you so very much Mr. Clapton.
You're never alone. May God's grace and peace comfort you.
Take care, I'm sorry for your hardship
sorry to hear that, no father should bury their child
I am sorry I can’t imagine losing a daughter or a son, but you need to stay strong! I know it is difficult I have been through loss too, but I know your daughter/son wouldn’t like you to stop just go on, it is okay to remember and to be sad but… go..on
I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope things are better now even slightly. I hope that you've gained a bit of closure. God bless and all the best! Please take care of yourself!
I leave you with this quote in the hope of comforting you:
"The dead have no desire but the happiness of the living."
My beautiful baby boy was born sleeping on November 21st 2024.
I only held Him in My arms for a short while but I'll hold Him in My heart forever.
Daddy will always love You My little angel.
Until We meet again sleep tight.
💔💔❤️❤️

This song is for Christie beachum my niece and nephew mom that died almost a year ago I think of her everyday and have never stopped thinking of her but I know I have her with me BC of my niece and nephew she has not left me all the way we still have her with us BC of her kids I'll never stop thinking of her aways
If I can teach my children one lesson in life, this will be it. Never judge, never mock, for we are all fighting our own battles.
