Just lost my father a few hours ago. This is the first song I wanted to hear. He used to play this song all the time when I was young and I with him all the time. As I got older, careers, life, and family of my own I barely got to see him. I have so much regret and hurt for not making more time to see him. The pain is heavy right now. Love you Dad!
When my dad finally passes this is the first song I'm going to hear I'm even going to try to convince the family to play it while we take his coffin out into the hearse
I never had a father when I was born...he and my mother gave me up when I was about 2 months old to drugs and sex and other things and my whole life I never had those figures in my life and now that I’m 18 almost 19...it has never hit me harder and this song hits me so so deep cause I never got to have a father to teach me how to play catch or throw a football or any of that. I just wish I could look in his eyes and know that he loves me but he wants nothing to do with me and now I’m going off to college and he never told me one time my entire life he was proud of me nor my mother. I’m so grateful my grandmother raised me to the man I am today.
Bad things will happen to good people, and we can't choose wether they happen to us or not... But be proud of who you are and what you've accomplished. You have people who love you and are proud of you too, and I'm sure you'll be a great father to your kids, if you ever have them.
Sorry for your loss man, I just lost my pops on jan 6 24, he just turned 60 on New years eve, it will be 38 years until I'm 60, then the years after I have no choice but to spend without him 😢
No intention to belittle you guys at all, and it really sucks when your dad goes. We all do of course. He ain't in heaven btw, or hell for that matter. The dude will be everywhere all the time, and you can bet your bottom dollar he will not forget who you are.
Lost my dad in 99.he was 52 years young.this song always makes me cry.not a day goes by i don't miss him.last month I lost my mom.so always appriciate your parents cuz one day they will be gone
I also played this song at my Dad's funeral , I miss my Dad , I love this song , thanks Eric Clapton , a beautiful song to remember our fathers , God Bless .
Yesterday august 11, my father would be 100 years old. I was driving and then I listened to this beautiful song on the radio, and I prayed for him, and I said "father I love you". And I am crying right now. God bless him.
I think the last time I heard this song was when I was 6 or 7. I was crying (over the loss of my grandfather) and my daddy stopped at a gas station to hold me in his arms when this song was playing. 12-13 years later, I'm listening to this song and reminded of my dad, whose been dead for almost 6 years now and I cry thinking of how tenderly he held me. We may not have had the best relationship, but this song reminds me of how much I actually miss him.
I miss my parents. Lost my dad when I wad 11 and my mom at 38. I want to live life today that would make them proud of me. And to know they would still love me. I love the verse "Bit by bit ... I realized. I realized: I looked into my father's eyes."
Never a time when I hear this song, when my eyes don't get watery thinking of my old man, miss him greatly and literally taught me everything there is to know on how to be a Man, from working hard for what you got, to love and protect your wife and kids. Only lesson he didn't teach me is living without him, and his guidance. He prepared me to find the light at the end of the tunnel, but not live with out him, he was my Hero, my best friend, and my confidant and voice of reasoning. I hope one day my kids remember me just like the way I remember my old man. Those of you that still have your dad, cherish him and let him know how much they mean to you, everyday......
Everytime I hear that song, I feel bad for all the things I've done wrong to my dad and at the same time I am so glad that he is still with me and I can show him what he means to me.
This song hits home to my heart. My father died last Monday. I wish I could look at him one more time. Even talk to him. I'm his Jr. He even nicknamed my son 3D because he is the third generation. Dad I will always love you as I'm crying my heart out on the inside.
The first time I heard this was in the car with my mom, and it was right when my dad was diagnosed with cancer. This has always held a special part of my life. Life is a definite balance between hard lessons, regrets, pain, but it also can be such a beautiful life.
I lost my father many years ago and this song still moves me! Enjoy your parents while they are still alive! This song has great meaning to those who have lost their parents and should motovate those who still have theirs alive to appreciate what they have!
Charlie Hecht the greatest loss in life is when someone loses a parent especially when they are close. I love my dad who passed away this year. I miss you dad and pray that I see you one day.
I missed my father so much,,he was very tough old school man,,but he made man of me. Thank you dad for all great values you thought me,,,Love you and miss you.❤😥
I remember hearing this on Nash Bridges, when his father collapses from a heart attack. This song plays while he's standing over his resting father in the hospital. That memory always makes me tear up. Such a beautiful song.
Thanking my Father in heaven for Eric and his gift, offering so many insights to us. (So few appreciate this , as some crude and shallow comments indicate.) Here in Tulsa where Eric worked with his Oklahoma crew, it’s easy to receive and experience the kind of love he sings of
From when I was born, my father was telling me that I was a mistake, and that I was not wanted. My earliest memories were of him having no patience with me, anger, and being beaten. And yet, in his last days, I was the one there who realized that his time was up. Shunned by my siblings, I could not be there for his last moments, because I had seen months of him breaking down to nothing. I actually came to this song for my daughter. Because I know that everything I never had as a kid, I give to her. I will get this song for her, and hope that in years to come, she will relate it to me.
Lost my dad Easter this year. 9 months later and I still grieve for him. Treasure your father while you have him. I miss him everyday. I love you dad, we will meet again and I will look into your eyes again...
I have always loved this song, but I now love,understand and feel it better, now that I have just lost my Dad. I am the last to see his eyes! I actually closed them. How painful 😭😭😭😭Rest in peace my dad, my best friend!!!
I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my mom at 18. I never thought I would get over it, and I allowed grief to overtake me. The sadness nearly destroyed me. You will always miss him, but please enjoy the life he gave you. You'll see him again on the other side.
I lost my father in 2011... Allah Knows the pain I went through... regretting every moment I could have spent with him that I blew away... shame we can't go back in time and regain so many lost opportunities... I miss you Baba... insha Allah in heaven I will see you
Need to know the right thing to do??? My dad has been gone 39 years. When I have a question as to what the right thing to do, i hear this song and ask what my Dad would do.
I remember listening to this song when I was a kid with my father one time driving to hockey. I knew it reminded him of his deceased father. Now I feel the way he felt. 15 years this February. RIP Dad.
My father is a living legend, a true hero! Decorated military man, navy captain, company CEO, self made man, enthusiastic about fishing, loving husband and greatest father. Everything I've done right in my life so far, he has influenced in a way for the better. Thank you for everything dad! May you one day proudly exclaim "That's my son" to what I have achieved. May we have a million more toasts to good things.
Just had my son feb 4th and moved my father up from Florida back to jersey. So happy to have him around and dance to this with my son. God bless you all!
Following my father's passing at age 72 in 1999, I had several dreams about him. In the most vivid of these dreams, I was standing in front of him, simply looking into his eyes, no words being said. That dream is what I think of when I hear this beautiful tribute by Clapton.
I've had many dreams where my father is just smiling at me and I can hear his thoughts, almost like telepathic. Those have been the most special, because the feelings are so real and I believe are a real message from the other side.
Sometimes we don't ever think about loosing a family member but sometimes it happens so fast as with my mother and father. So next time you see yours give them a big hug and hold on and don't let go, let them know how much you love them.
A beautiful song dedicated to his Father.. I had a wonderful and sweet Father and he was my best friend and not a day goes by that I don't miss him. He was the perfect Daddy for me..
eric was my dads favorite singer. I have always liked eric clapton too. I lost my dad almost 2 years ago and its really changed me.. there are days where i just wish i could sit with him and feel that feeling of comfort and saftey that we all took for granted as kids..
My father have just passed away. This song was playing on the radio, as I was many miles away from him. I wish I had the chance to look into his eyes one more time.
Whenever I couldn’t be near my dad or thinking about him and my brother in another country I would play this song, and dance and sang out loud. Few days ago my dad passed away, my brother couldn’t be near and this song saved me. Whenever I see my brother, and look at him I always see that glimpse of my fathers eyes... remember and cherish every single moment ❤️
I love this song, it makes me think of my father and how things would have been if he had not decided to walk out of my life when I was just a toddler...I guess I will never know what is like to at least look in his eyes.
You haven't lost your father he's always will love you, just as I love my father's eyes, father bless his soul please I beg of you and forgive him his transgression.
I dedicate this song to both of my Fathers, Dave Casillas and David Bogdan. Thank you both for all that you’ve done and everything you’ll always mean to me. I love you guys!
Nearly four long years have gone and forever I'll keep counting. This world, now feels strange and empty. God I miss you Dad and I've seen the signs.. believe me, I have. When I see you again Dad, I'm never going to let go. Sorry Dad for my mistakes and thank you for your understanding and love. God bless you and everyone up there❤️🌹🌟💯🙏
Dad,rest in peace. Every Dad inspires his family so unique. May all that have lost their Dad find comfort in this legendary work of art by Sir Clapton🤗
I missed out on the first 3 yrs of my daughter. Not bc I didn't want to but bc I didn't even know she existed. Ever since I found out that I had a daughter, nothing stopped me. Now I'm a big part of her life. She's 5 now and we're closer than ever. "I need my father's eyes" . Love you Vivian
you're not the only one who lost a father. I lost my father, too, last March 2017. He was my first music teacher as well. He died not because of disease or complications but from a broken heart after my mother passed away last November 2015 due to cancer. I thought I would give up playing music because I felt part of me died with him yet still, here I am... still playing music like he always plays. After he died, I asked him, "Dad, how can I carry your legacy? How can I carry you? I feel I can't go on without you." Yet, I am still here. Still playing and playing the music he played when he was still alive. I realize: I am indeed continuing his legacy but carry few things at a time. Hope this helps you a lot. You, me, and everybody else lost their fathers but life goes on. I am sure your dad is watching you and you have to keep moving. But his legacy on you, will always be there. Carry few things at a time and sooner or later, it's comforting before you know it. God bless.
Eric never looked into his father's eyes. When he was 12yrs. old Eric found out that he was a bastard. His older sister was actually his mother. His father was a Canadian soldier who was stationed in England. Eric located his father's whereabouts in Canada, three months after his father had passed away. If you read the lyrics, you'll see that Eric was actually imagining what he would have done if he had actually met his father. Then the song takes on a very sad and haunting "what if".
This song is about Eric Clapton becoming a father and realising that the closest he ever got to looking into his father's eyes was looking into his child's eyes. I did read that somewhere....
Драга, мила Анастасиа - и ја тугујем за мојим татом , увек када чујем ову песму- а прошло је толико година--Вечнаја Памјат!......Саучествујем у твојој тузи, овде, из Сербије...
Grew up without my father but when I did finally get the chance to look into my father's eyes...I seen a familiarity that can't be explained. I will miss him
Just lost my father a few hours ago. This is the first song I wanted to hear. He used to play this song all the time when I was young and I with him all the time. As I got older, careers, life, and family of my own I barely got to see him. I have so much regret and hurt for not making more time to see him. The pain is heavy right now. Love you Dad!
My condolences
When my dad finally passes this is the first song I'm going to hear I'm even going to try to convince the family to play it while we take his coffin out into the hearse
Wishing you well. I hope this message makes you smile and makes you think of him. He raised you right if you have those feelings.
Lost mines a year ago; On this very day 😔 Stay strong fam. They are still with us in spirit. Continue to make him proud 🙏🏽
Don't worry he's looking from heaven very proud of you and your family
I never had a father when I was born...he and my mother gave me up when I was about 2 months old to drugs and sex and other things and my whole life I never had those figures in my life and now that I’m 18 almost 19...it has never hit me harder and this song hits me so so deep cause I never got to have a father to teach me how to play catch or throw a football or any of that.

I’m so grateful my grandmother raised me to the man I am today.
Bad things will happen to good people, and we can't choose wether they happen to us or not... But be proud of who you are and what you've accomplished. You have people who love you and are proud of you too, and I'm sure you'll be a great father to your kids, if you ever have them.
I know it feels bad but thats less ya have to grieve over later in life
God bless you young man. Humanity is proud of you....and our Heavenly Father is proud of you. You are the apple of His eye.
I, as your brother, am proud of you. Prophet Mohammed never saw his father, and his mother died when he was very young. He was an orphan.
Your Heavenly Father loves you. Just call on Him and He will show you his love.
I lost my father when I needed him, I really miss him, may my father rest in heaven
❤
My faaaaaar desires❤ che lapsus della Madonna.
Sorry for your loss man, I just lost my pops on jan 6 24, he just turned 60 on New years eve, it will be 38 years until I'm 60, then the years after I have no choice but to spend without him 😢

I believe that somewhere in the world, there are people who feel the same emotions that I feel when I listen to masterpieces like this song.
Yes I’m from Algeria i feel the same emotion 😞
Lost my dad in 99.he was 52 years young.this song always makes me cry.not a day goes by i don't miss him.last month I lost my mom.so always appriciate your parents cuz one day they will be gone
That's way too young I'm so sorry
I lost my Dad 22 years ago. This one is still hard, but such a beautiful song.
I also played this song at my Dad's funeral , I miss my Dad , I love this song , thanks Eric Clapton , a beautiful song to remember our fathers , God Bless .
Yesterday august 11, my father would be 100 years old. I was driving and then I listened to this beautiful song on the radio, and I prayed for him, and I said "father I love you". And I am crying right now. God bless him.
Your father and I share a birthday. R.I.P to your dad
I lost my father at the age of 12, and now, 50 years later, i realise when i hear this song, that i have missed him all these years.
No words to describe this song... Eric Clapton is a living legend.
I simply loved this song on the first day of listening to it
I've lost my father two weeks ago, this song is always on my mind. Farewell, Daddy!
F
Very hard to go through. Over time you will draw strength from his loss. The drive to be a better man, someone he would be proud of.
Dávid Fodor stay strong
Dávid Fodor I’m so sorry for your loss 😢
May he rest peacefully in Heaven and know he is always with you in spirit 😇
My condolences
I lost my Father 4 years ago and it still hurts so much. Wish I could look into my Father's eyes.
Love u Dad...❤💓💙💞💝💘💗

What a lovely comment.
Awww im sorry for ur loss
My dad was a great man
And
I see my fathers eyes each morning when I shave.
Thanks Dad
I agree my brother
I miss my parents. Lost my dad when I wad 11 and my mom at 38. I want to live life today that would make them proud of me. And to know they would still love me. I love the verse "Bit by bit ... I realized. I realized: I looked into my father's eyes."
My dad died when I was 11. I look forward to the day when I will look into his eyes again. God bless you Eric.
Lost my dad a month ago at the age of 90 and the house is so empty without him around.
Miss giving him a shave he was a wonderful man
F
Same brother, I miss giving my dad a shave too.
Peace

I went and told my dad i love him after i read your comment
Оh man, thank you for this kind words of your comment - this very touch me..God bless you!
"Light at the end of the tunnel" i know that Guy.
@@waynemurphy2594 And it is no train..
Listen to 'Tunnel' by Third Day!
Everytime I hear that song, I feel bad for all the things I've done wrong to my dad and at the same time I am so glad that he is still with me and I can show him what he means to me.
This song hits home to my heart. My father died last Monday. I wish I could look at him one more time. Even talk to him. I'm his Jr. He even nicknamed my son 3D because he is the third generation. Dad I will always love you as I'm crying my heart out on the inside.
God bless u
Stay strong you will meet again at the rainbow bridge
My condolences
I've seen Clapton in concert 3 times. He puts on a excellent show. One time he had an orchestra with him. A must see for any Clapton fan.
Your so lucky did the man play one we didn't love
The first time I heard this was in the car with my mom, and it was right when my dad was diagnosed with cancer. This has always held a special part of my life. Life is a definite balance between hard lessons, regrets, pain, but it also can be such a beautiful life.
I lost my dad when i was 11, now at 21 theres no day i dont think about him. This song is very beautiful moves me every time.
@gio
I can relate with your sadness 'cause I lost mine about 3 years ago. And how it hurts, my buddy...
Anyway, Happy XMas and regards from Brazil !!!
Stay strong
There is no mistake. Absolutely perfect. Thank you for this, Eric.
October 1986 lost my father, he was 57. RIP. Love you dad.
God bless You!💜
The great touching sound, the choir, the solo guitar, the trembling with intense feeling voice of Eric - all those make the song magical.
I lost my father many years ago and this song still moves me! Enjoy your parents while they are still alive! This song has great meaning to those who have lost their parents and should motovate those who still have theirs alive to appreciate what they have!
+Charlie Hecht totally agreed. Great comment
I'm so sorry of your loss and hope your recovering, but thanks to your comment I'll hug those closest to me a little tighter next chance I get.
Charlie Hecht
Charlie Hecht the greatest loss in life is when someone loses a parent especially when they are close. I love my dad who passed away this year. I miss you dad and pray that I see you one day.
Absolutely 👍🏻
Wonderful
Superb
Fantastic
Excellent
Brilliant
What more can I say about this great track by the legend Eric Clapton.
I missed my father so much,,he was very tough old school man,,but he made man of me. Thank you dad for all great values you thought me,,,Love you and miss you.❤😥
My uncle played this when my Grandpas funeral, always hits a throat shot of emotion when I hear it.
Amazing song.
I remember hearing this on Nash Bridges, when his father collapses from a heart attack. This song plays while he's standing over his resting father in the hospital.
That memory always makes me tear up.
Such a beautiful song.
I just watched that episode of Nash Bridges on H&I...
@@LawrenceMark33 Pretty heavy, huh? Jesus....
I loved my dad so much, I wish he was still here. I am grateful for the years I had with him and my mom. I hope they both rest in peace
Thanking my Father in heaven for Eric and his gift, offering so many insights to us. (So few appreciate this , as some crude and shallow comments indicate.) Here in Tulsa where Eric worked with his Oklahoma crew, it’s easy to receive and experience the kind of love he sings of
my father used to guide me trough my life, after i lost him this will help me , thank you
Yesterday I've lost my Dad........ this song is now more important for me
Max Floyd, so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. Sending you virtual hugs. Hold onto the great memories, that helps me so much
Hugs and my condolences

Lost my dad on fathers day 2018 😢 he was 59. I will never love anyone as much as him, my heart aches 😢

I lost My Dad about 3 years ago. This song makes me tear up.
Me too. Everytime.
Tears roll down my eyes as I listen to this track every time!! Missing my Father's eyes !!
My favorite Eric Clapton's song! Thanks for sharing and greetings from Chile 😍🇨🇱
Amazing song. I first listened to it in the 90's. It was still a new song back then.
Thanks Eric for making my father's day!
When I hear this song brings back memories of my dad I lost at the age of 13.which was 65 years ago.Still think of him each day.
Need to know the right thing to do??? My dad has been gone 39 years. When I have a question as to what the right thing to do, i hear this song and ask what my Dad would do.
So true, my father passed in 2000
I lost my Daddy in August of 2019 not day goes past I think of him daddy I miss you Happy birthday daddy January 31
never had a dad growing up, but when i listen to this I can't help but feel a huge swelling in my throat and eyes.
This song reminds me of my dad.

That's nothing to be ashamed of bro, It's okay to cry
So many great tunes. Thank you Mr. Clapton.

You haven't lost your father he's always will love you, just as I love my father's eyes, father bless his soul please I beg of you and forgive him his transgression.
I dedicate this song to both of my Fathers, Dave Casillas and David Bogdan. Thank you both for all that you’ve done and everything you’ll always mean to me. I love you guys!
Nearly four long years have gone and forever I'll keep counting.
This world, now feels strange and empty. God I miss you Dad and I've seen the signs.. believe me, I have. When I see you again Dad, I'm never going to let go. Sorry Dad for my mistakes and thank you for your understanding and love. God bless you and everyone up there❤️🌹🌟💯🙏
Dad,rest in peace. Every Dad inspires his family so unique. May all that have lost their Dad find comfort in this legendary work of art by Sir Clapton🤗
What a great song, Eric Clapton has always been one of my favorite guitarist.
My favorite Clapton song of all !!
Agree
Yes but also Tears In Heaven
Lost my dad in 2004......there isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think of him.....this songs brings a tear every time......
The greatest loss is the loss of this time when music was so soulful and nice. Those artists. Sigh!!.....That time is over now.
well said 😀
My father's eyes were so mystic..but bit by bit... i realize.Missing him...no words to describe how much.
No tears in heaven. I miss you dad. I'm so sorry your life was so unhappy.God has you now.
why his life unhappy? What youre talking about?
I lost my dad a year ago and this song gets me every time. He'd listen to this all the time 😪
Sorry to hear about your dad. I lost my dad in 2015. He was a big Clapton fan. What we wouldnt give to have anorher day 😊
Such a beautiful song made me cry when I kept listening to it over and over again
perfect song for my dad this father's day he loves eric clapton so much OMG!
Beautiful Clapton's song, no doubt one more emotional music from this Master!
I missed out on the first 3 yrs of my daughter. Not bc I didn't want to but bc I didn't even know she existed. Ever since I found out that I had a daughter, nothing stopped me. Now I'm a big part of her life. She's 5 now and we're closer than ever. "I need my father's eyes" . Love you Vivian
😭😱
My dad pass 2013 I still miss him
One of my favorite songs...Very spiritual I think he wrote this in recovery

***** Yes, I know... only the best make it on my page... and he earned it several times...
A favorite of my mom's. Yes it's about "father and son" but still makes me think of her every time. Love you ma.

I love you dad....missing you so much I will see you again one day please watch over me. x😢
Amen!🌞
Song good
You will meet again soon,in eternal joy, to never part again !
you're not the only one who lost a father.
I lost my father, too, last March 2017. He was my first music teacher as well.
He died not because of disease or complications but from a broken heart after my mother passed away last November 2015 due to cancer.
I thought I would give up playing music because I felt part of me died with him yet still, here I am... still playing music like he always plays.
After he died, I asked him, "Dad, how can I carry your legacy? How can I carry you? I feel I can't go on without you." Yet, I am still here. Still playing and playing the music he played when he was still alive.
I realize: I am indeed continuing his legacy but carry few things at a time.
Hope this helps you a lot. You, me, and everybody else lost their fathers but life goes on. I am sure your dad is watching you and you have to keep moving. But his legacy on you, will always be there. Carry few things at a time and sooner or later, it's comforting before you know it.
God bless.
Eric never looked into his father's eyes. When he was 12yrs. old Eric found out that he was a bastard. His older sister was actually his mother. His father was a Canadian soldier who was stationed in England. Eric located his father's whereabouts in Canada, three months after his father had passed away. If you read the lyrics, you'll see that Eric was actually imagining what he would have done if he had actually met his father. Then the song takes on a very sad and haunting "what if".
What the hell...
That changes everything about this song. Still makes me very very emotional
Curly27784 wow that’s really sad
Wow so sad man but I appreciate that back story I never knew this and i've been listening to this song for ages cheers mate.
This song is about Eric Clapton becoming a father and realising that the closest he ever got to looking into his father's eyes was looking into his child's eyes. I did read that somewhere....
I lost my dad in 2002 and still have conversations with him over music and other stuff. He started my music monster in me. Love you dad and bestfriend
My father ... you're always in my heart.
Lost my daddy 2 months ago... Miss him and love him so much... This song makes my pain less. It's really good! One of the best ever!
i am with you.
So sorry for your loss, Prayers to you
❤
Драга, мила Анастасиа - и ја тугујем за мојим татом , увек када чујем ову песму- а прошло је толико година--Вечнаја Памјат!......Саучествујем у твојој тузи, овде, из Сербије...

Grew up without my father but when I did finally get the chance to look into my father's eyes...I seen a familiarity that can't be explained. I will miss him
