Lyrics:
Sailing down behind the sun
Waiting for my prince to come
Praying for the healing rain
To restore my soul again
Just a toerag on the run
How did I get here?
What have I done?
When will all my hopes arise?
How will I know him?
When I look in my father's eyes
(Look into my father's eyes)
My father's eyes
When I look in my father's eyes
(Look into my father's eyes)
My father's eyes
Then the light begins to shine
And I hear those ancient lullabies
And as I watch this seedling grow
Feel my heart start to overflow
Where do I find the words to say?
How do I teach him?
What do we play?
Bit by bit, I've realized
That's when I need them
That's when I need my father's eyes
Then the jagged edge appears
Through the distant clouds of tears
I'm like a bridge that was washed away
My foundations were made of clay
As my soul slides down to die
How could I lose him?
What did I try?
Bit by bit, I've realized
That he was here with me
I look into my father's eyes

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.
just dudes standing there doin their job... no glam hair, no gold chains, no bullshit... just music...
I am 102 years old and have been a Clapton fan since the beginning.
God bless you for making it to 102. Im half your age 51.
If I make it to 102, it may very well be because of Eric Clapton....
Of course „straightmanforever69“ TROLL 😂
We don't know you but we love you and wish you more health to enjoy more of such masterpiece. When someone of you age loves such a song it means the rest of us are not wrong.
Im 104
I'm listening to this with tears streaming down my face . As my dad passed away this morning. He was a huge fan of Eric Clapton, as I am to. He was 66 years old and I will miss him forever.
My father passed in 2012 and I think of him every day. It will get better but he will always be by your side.
Gazeral Gaming I understand your pain, my Dad went to Heaven a year ago ❤️
man, thats rough... sorry to hear.
you WILL feel better sooner then later. trust me, i know..
hang in there!
We hear you my friend. This song meant SO much to me and I lost a lot of tears when my dad passed. We're all reaching out to you and we share your pain. Hang in there -- you know your dad would be proud of the love you feel for him. Love is forever.
So sorry for loss, I pray for healing and strength. You are not alone.
Who's still listening to this masterpiece 2024❤?
🇧🇷 I am here!!
And me...
Meeting too❤.
Masterpiece. You got that right!
😊

I have to look my son's eyes to see my father's eyes. Miss u dad ❤
Clapton is timeless. What an incredible song lyrically and musically.
He is timeles, he is genieus, love him
Thé "guy" IS awesome!!! Love u Eric!!!😊
My biological father died a year and a half ago. My parents split when I was five I didn't see him again until I was 18. But we still got to make memories as adults. My dad was a good man my step dad too. He's Still alive so at least I have one out of two dads left.
My father passed from Covid complications 6 months ago - still miss him everyday. Music keeps me sane and learning about faith in God after 64 years. Life is a journey in progress. Thanks for making that journey more pleasant, Eric Clapton!
xo
My condolences, dear. May your dad RIP. I'd like to share your sadness. 😢
thank you!!have you ever had an opportunity to attend any of my concerts so far? Thank you for your likes and comments as well and I really appreciate your love and support over me as well
My sincere condolences !! I can't agree more with your comment !!!
I still can't believe eric stated against vaccine
Nobody else on this planet is able to play this delicate introduction. Eric is really inspired during the whole song, he masters every second of it with genius.
It is 2024 and I am still watching this. So many concerts, so many GREAT memories.
The genius of Clapton; he can perform the same song a thousand times and no two will be exactly the same, but all will be a masterpiece.
É sempre assim com todas as músicas, sempre uma performance diferente. Uma melhor que a outra. Esse show com esses músicos foi fantástico. Grande Billy. 💯
So authentic! Regular guy! No hype!

I’m 76 and love this man’s music
Yo soy más joven q tú pero para esta música no hay edad
Good music never age's only we do.
I'm 23 and I love his music too. I'm going to watch him for the first time here in Argentina, as my dad make me listen his music when I was just a child. I'm so exited!
@@federicoschembri4284. You will never forget especially because you will associate Eric’s music with your dad. Lifetime memory, enjoy your concert
Great must doesn't age. People are still listening to music from the 16th century.
“He’s always with me.” - that’s what everyone who has lost a loved on needs to remember. They are ALWAYS with us. God blesses the broken hearted, for he surrounds them.
This song is so brilliantly written he's singing to the Lord our father God.
Indeed! ^^
Amém
Blessing all the fathers in 2023 🥰
I lost my Dad today. He was 65. My heart is shattered. I don’t know how I will get through this pain. I am here because He loved Eric Clapton. ❤️
May his soul rest in peace..i wish u courage😪..i lost my dad too long time ago but i started lately to realize it and didn t cry until now....keep the faith❤
Lost my Dad in 2010 .... wishing you a healed heart -- for the video of his life, I used this song as the soundtrack.
Baby Girl73 Thank you ❤️🙏🏻
Jayze Vo Thank you ❤️🙏🏻
Ure welcome🙂
*If you're still watching this in 2022 you're such a legend*
👊🏽
Sure I do.
Here I am
From Seoul.Korea
I’m here but I’m no legend, only a legacy to the ones I helped create. To be a father is the greatest gift ever bestowed upon me.
Eric Clapton ist ein Segen für die Welt der Musik. Ein Segen für sein Publikum. Ich durfte ihn bei seinem letzten Deutschland Konzert in Mannheim Deutschland 🇩🇪 erleben. Vielen Dank
Eric Clapton never really knew his father ... which makes this song so much more meaningful .. especially when he sings "thats when I need them; that's when I need my fathers eyes"
it was soon after his son passed as well if im correct. breaks ur heart
@@noctxrnyl8240st Verse: Eric waiting for his dad
2nd Verse: Eric has a son
3rd Verse: Eric loses his son
@@pyromania1018 🥲
So very true 😢😢😢
This is not a song; it is a prayer 🙏 ❤️🩹🪶
Just 🙏😘
It isn't. It's specifically about his actual Father who he never knew, and the perspective of his Son who died in a tragic accident.
😢
Bro that’s what OP meant by saying it was like a prayer. To God. About connects death
Well said. Very
Still watching in 2024. I'll bawl in tears if my future child will discover this song and sing it to me.
I play guitar and my dad is very excited to hear me play his songs. I play on the same guitar he played when he was 16. Today he is 41
@@user-vn9fo6um9c wow!! does he play guitar too? you should jam this song with him. i'm sure he'd be happy to spend time with you.
Still watching 2024 binging on Clampton’s music. Wondering if there’s a good bio of him.❤
My father passed when I was 10. This song means a lot to me.
So sorry that’s so young 😢
My mother didn't physically die, but something in her died when I was ten years old, and I had to grow up and become an adult. So, in a way, I understand your pain.
My Father died and this was his Song… where ever you are enjoy. Love you
He never met his Father....Eric was the illegitimate son of a Canadian flyer who was in GB during the War...knocked-up his Mom, then returned to Canada. His young Mom then lived with her Mother and gave birth to Eric. As a cover story, Eric was raised to believe his Mom was his SISTER and that his Grandmother was his Mother !! So I believe his search for his Father will never be over...perhaps he wrote this song to "air" his pain relating to this life issue just as his "Tears in Heaven" was written to help him deal with the loss of his child Connor who died tragically. Our love of his great music is rooted in his life tragedies without which they would never have been written. He always has been a "Blues-Rocker" and a great song writer who has had MULTIPLE successful careers spanning literally more than 1/2 Century. Thanks man....you have made your mark with millions of loyal fans and WILL do it again with generations yet unborn.
Beautifully written and thank you so much for sharing your heartwarming story... My father was an alcoholic and abused my mother and us 4 kids... I have been using my music therapy group on my msgr now and with that said I've been listening to rock and roll since I was 13yrs old it's my 1st love as is This Man...
Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful thoughts on Eric he is a great gift from Our Father God I was abused by my alcoholic father until I was 13yrs old and never wanted to look into his eyes... Music is my therapy and rock is my heart 1st.
I too have loved this man's musical talent.
Have been listening to him since I was 13yrs old and never heard this song before and I was doing a top 5 guitarist on my music therapy group through msgr and of course Eric was there and I searched for the song choice I wanted to use and I don't believe in accidents or coincidence's...
I believe God led me straight to this song and at first the title of course wasn't right but I listened to the lyrics and knew God and Eric who wrote the song flipped the script and I cried with love and joy with the most precious words of understanding exactly what they meant... I had already forgiven my father a long time ago and God has blessed me with 4 son's and plus 1 1/2 brother I helped raise and they are grown now ... My oldest is 43yrs and Christopher is in the Ellis Unit serving a long sentence for drugs that I know he would otherwise be dead... My heart is broken but I'm so grateful for his life and God's mercy on him... He has a son who just graduated and we have not seen since he was a child..
Through the music and prayer warriors for our children all around the world I dedicated this song to them and played through out the day I tell you that again that prayers work by 9pm that night my grandson on msgr contacted me... I was overwhelmed with joy and love to hear from him and asking about his father, my son...
I thank you Mr. Eric Clapton for your music that touches us in our hearts!!! We are all blessed by it through you and I say thank you for all you give of yourself with the precious talent through Our Father God in Jesus Christ name Amen... I apologize for the long reply as I have never done this before... I really enjoyed reading your words of his lifetime and would like to know more and read his autobiography too... Can you tell me the title please...

My dad had the most beautiful eyes. Looking into the them brought comfort and eased my spirit. Soon to be 20 years since he left, I miss him everyday. This song brings comfort and tears. I love you Dad.
My dad also had the most beautiful blue eyes. Looking into the them brought me comfort and eased my spirit as well. It's been 15 years since he left, I miss him everyday too. Yes, this song brings comfort and tears. I never tire of listening to it. I love you Dad. Thank you Eric Clapton.

Gosh...you two share my sentiments about my father. Just beautiful!
@@stephenhiller2948 kip
I lost my father 43 years ago , not a day goes by I don't think of him and all my family who have passed before me such a hollow feeling . Your words brought comfort in the memories .
You lucky one ... I didn't 😞
My Father and I were very close, then in my early twenties we had a bad agreement over a foolish decision I made and he was forced to make a tough decision to put me in jail. Am older now, we made amends, but I still feel poorly for putting my Father through that terrible ordeal. Then I think of Mr. Clapton and the problems he had with his family of origin. Makes my story look like a fairytale. God Bless you Mr. Clapton, thank you for your strength and healing.
When I was a kid my dad would play Eric's lives on tv and record it...we would run everytime knowing it was going to be playing all day! Tomorrow will be my Daddy's first birthday in heaven and here I am listening to him just to feel those day's again!!😭😭😭😭
Gracias al que publico esta bella canción. Por favor si alguien pudiera colocarle los subtítulos en español, les quedaría agradecido. Gracias.
Lost my father just few years ago.
His blue eyes smiled.
"Be a good man" they said
So I am
There are no words for the Brilliance of this artist. It means so much to me and so many different ways with recovery for the last 30 years
I looked in my mother eyes (95 years)!
One of the best guitarists AND vocalists ever. This song is amazing
This song made me cry, i miss my father so much, he died when i was 13.. i always keep imagining versions of conversations we might have had if he was still here. Beautiful song.
Sorry to hear that..
Sending you ❤
Sending you hugs
Eric Clapton, is the number one.
Clapton is untouchable, the real guitar god !!!
My father...who grew me up with Eric's tracks and who we drank whisky together is now in intensive care because of cancer..they said the rest of his life is about 5 months but his cancer is very agressive,he is not able to talk.now ı am back at home and everywhere smells him and this track appeared and ı am totally down! :((( so,,to the people who is listening this track,ı want a pray for him from what you believe god,Allah or something else,ı really feel so lonely and ı hope your all family passes their lifes with health and happinnes..cheers... luv ya all...
my father just passed away. his funeral is tomorrow
how glad am i that this music exists. thank you eric

God bless and Rest In Peace to your father. My wonderful and amazing father passed the other day and I miss him so very much. Looking forward to see into my fathers eyes in Heaven one day again. God bless you Dad, you were/ are the best father a son could ever have. Thank you for being you!!!
It doesn't get any better than this, he is the king of the guitar.
Clapton>Hendrix For Me
yes! I agree with you!
Ever heard Tommy Emmanuel?
Not a bad voice either.
Totally in agreement. Always been a fan. Bless you Eric!!!
If one day I’ll become half the man my father is, I’ve succeeded. Love you dad.
My Dad the only one that accept me the way I am. Miss you, your son.
Eric Clapton is one of the nicest people that I have ever worked with. He’s a fine and true gentleman and very generous with his time. His talent is unmatched on this planet. A very cool dude!

You got to be one of the luckiest guys on the planet to have worked with him.
@Slow Cheetah
And what sins have you committed that you regret?
Everyone's done something they are not proud of and wish they could take back...
@Slow Cheetah Yeah, he has said he used to be an asshole messed up on alcohol and drugs, but he cleaned up and is a great dude now and has been for quite a long time. Met him in a pub in Asheville NC around 12 years ago. He spent around 1.5 hours with me and some friends. Was hanging with us for like 30 min. before I asked him name, since I had not recognized him. He was having a good time being just another bloke. Nice guy with no head up his ass.
Yes he's a cool man legend
He never knew his dad, and his son Connor died very young. This song deals with both father and son. Great song.
Shawn Sparkman correct me if I’m wrong but tears in heaven was geared more towards his son, no?
FRIEND ABOUT THE SAME TIME I LOST 2 OF MY KIDS BUT YOU CARRY ON WE STILL HAVE 2 DAUGHTERS DEPLOYED USMC AS I AM MY WIFE IS ARMY VETERAN FOR OUR NATION WE CARRY ON 🙏🤝✌💞🙏
@@terrymirande They both are about Conor's death. That's why he rarely performs either song anymore -- it's too hard for him.
The idea of the song is that he never looked into his father's eyes, but by looking into Conor's, it was the closest he'd ever come. The third generation was his only connection to the first.
HE FELL OUT A WINDOW
Grande Don Erick
No guitarist has the same arithmetic timing, geometrical progression and ring range Simply an Alien
This song and performance is epic. Unbelievable quality like Clapton himself. This guy is a true musical legend .
Yes, and every note he plays has a purpose - genius!
Verdade,uma lenda
I am 72 years old and about 6 months ago I started to try to learn how to play slow blues on electric guitar,which I don't think I'll ever be able to do.Istarted to listen and watch Eric Clapton and I'm like several others who have said some of his songs bring me to tears,he is the best ever,I just wish I had started watching his videos earlier in life
Hey, it's never too late! Keep practicing and you will be playing Clapton songs in no time =)
va em frente, o tempo será maravilhoso com voce. abraços
I love Eric clapton so munch they should sit him next to GOD..so I bought a fender Stratocaster Sunburst the thing is could I learn to play it..hmm?
I think it's fantastic that you started to play at 72. Keep it going
..
aza Zaza z Zaza
How many artists are as incredible live as they are recorded? Not many. I simply love this song. Clapton is truly amazing.
Simply the best Guitar in the world
@@brunotabacco8306!!!! OUI!!!!!
Studio-quality live performances!
Probably one of the best live Eric Clapton performances ever. I’ve watched this hundreds of times and it continues to blow me away.
There will never be a guitarist like slow hand Eric Clapton. He is as smooth as it gets!
Dedicate this song to my daughter TORI Washburn , no matter what happens in life your dad will always be there for you. Love you kid.
My father died when I was 8 years old I am 62 my heart cry's for him till this day! I have always wished I could look into my fathers eyes!!
+Greg Cook I'M SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.
That is so sad ..wish it could have been different for you. Hope you have children and that you can give them the pleasure you lacked.
+Tonino Musicalmente Thank you so much for your wonderful thoughts. It is so so wonderful and reassuring to know that there are truly caring people with good hearts still in this world.
God bless you and your family!
+Greg Cook Mine died at 13 my mother at the same time. Although I don't know your specific pain I understand the wish just for one moment in time with ones lost.
+Greg Cook I'm sure our parents are looking to our eyes every single moment...as long as we are thinking to them, are close to us!!
You cant beat a song with meaning, this man does it to perfection
Hello @cynthiarichardson4633, I'm glad you're a fan. How are you doing today? It's my pleasure meeting you here. Is this one of your favorite songs?
Love this. I miss my Dad
The Man who experienced Searching the loss of his child and put it to a Song we all know and love
3 months ago, my father lost the battle to covid-19. Today marks the completion of 3 months, and I wouldn't want anything more than my father to be alive today. He was just 65. I owe everything to him
Sending you love and hugs.
Sad to hear about your dad. He would be proud to have a child like you. God bless
and Clapton has publically vocalized his views on anti vaccination and public health restrictions..........
I'm sorry to hear that. My dad lost the battle with a stroke at 62. 16 july.
Your Father Loves You! Grieving is such a difficult time. I lost my Father in February, it's hard. Please find your soul journey? There is much comfort in that. Music is healing. Love to you 💜
He is a complete guitarist and good singer as well I have following Clapton 30 years and I am still enjoying his music I am 72 years old
Thank you Mr. Clapton for this Song!!! I miss my father's eyes a lot😢
Sometimes i suffer and had a qustion how to do right with my children!!❤
I think he is absolutely on top of his game at this time. His singing is superb and his playing is out of this world.
❤
Agreed
Agreed. Dave Gilmour is better and gets a better sound out of the Fender, but Eric is also phenomenal
@@thedcmac Agreed.
Clapton ages like red wine.
I love Clapton ❤❤❤
We will remember our fathers eyes. And our Mom's as well. Wish I could see those eyes again. Maybe later.
2024 Legend for Sure 66 and totally Happy!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Today is the day 1985 when my brother and I ran down 6th floor at Sunnybrooke Hospital....one minute after he passed....1985....My Dad and my best friend rest in peace and this song today and this post made me cry because I want to.
as beautiful as this music is, his lyrics kill me once again. The never ending impact of the absentee father and the lifelong effect it has on the child is gutwrenching. this should be studied in schools worldwide. Dads, you are needed!!
Amen!! My father passed this year 2021. I was with him when he passed. He was there when I was very young, but we had a troubled relationship. I miss the "other fathers" who helped me grow....big brothers, uncles, mentors. Those who guided me when my father was absent. Thank you all. Hard to talk about... Trying very hard to be a good father myself.
This song brings tears to my eyes.
👍👍👍
Eric never had a father! BUT a granddad! 👍
And: THEY destroyed the family union.
SO RETURN TO VIRTUES and do something about it!
Get married, a nice woman and get at least 2 kids!!!
I so understand. My parents divorced when I was two then remarried when I was 10, divorced again when I was 12. He was murdered when I was 19 and he was 38. It has definitely affected my whole life and my relationships with men. I tended to gravitate to men just like him. Hence I have had a very stormy life.
Yours is a wonderfully worded message.
G-wen
sometimes a father is absentee by not beeing able to accept his son looking into his eyes
so was my father and I understand, why he was not able to do ....
I am 71 now and I am missing, that he did not allow me to embrace him
but I love him !!!
Eric Clapton is a man blessed of the Lord! He had a very rough life, been thru hell and here he is playing like never before, has a beautiful family! I admire him as a man and musician!
yeah .. and whoever dislikes it .. i cant bring myself to say it ...
Easily made my favorite live album she it came out. The best before that was the Allman Brothers at Fillmore East. Know that says a bunch!!
Erics my 2nd cousin and his fabulous xxx
totally agree
This is gliss ? hmmmmmm no chance ever for me.
My father had "Jabuticaba" eyes, he taught me a little about the world, he "left" too soon, how good it would be if they were here, but I leave my thanks.
Can't help but reflect on my late father listening to this. I have children of my own now and the feeling of staring into their eyes is something I wish I could freeze and keep with me forever.
Dear dad, I remember your blue eyes, I dedicate this song to you!
Lost count of how many times I listened to this version. Brilliant Clapton. Brilliant band. Thank you.
Absolutely awesome. He didn't need any gimmiks (like smashing his guitar at every concert) ; he simply let his guitar "speak for itself."
Today would be my father's 85th birthday and this song feels truly special. Music enables the most powerful connection to my deepest feelings and, at this very moment, Dad, I look into your soul and thank you for the wonderful memories. You will never be missed.
My father's birthday is 5/5 and when I saw what you wrote I thought that was exactly what I would have written if I wrote so well!
помаши в небо, я его вижу из россии.
держись брат, соболезную
You forget how good Eric Clapton is and then you hear him and it all comes back.
I TOTALLY agree. Eric is absolutely AWESOME 👍
🙏🤝🙄😉💞🙏🤙🤙🤙👌✌🤞😅
He is a great guitarist but his voice is just as good and very under rated
My Ukrainian Men live to share this song with their sons...Long Live Freedom.
It's 2024.... I will always be watching this. Special special special. Thankyou for the music, you wonderfully talented soul ❤
Always shed a tear when I hear this song. I loved my father more than anything and miss him every day of my life. My hero now and always .
Hello Eimear where are you from?
Bless you . . . . . you’ll get through this
with music😮
I’m sorry for your loss . . . . .
This is the song the neighbours don't complain about even when played at ungodly hours
One of the greatest performances of his career..epic!
Completely agree. The words and music, the playing, that intro and outro. Commanding. The expression is palpable.
Eric Clapton is the God of guitars
My all-time favorite always
My Dad would have been 89 today, he died 3 years ago and I miss him incredibly. He was a proud Bosnian Croat, didn’t tolerate fools, was never politically correct and a bit of a cranky blunt instrument but never has there been a man who loved the four generations of his family like he did. He would literally take the shirt of his back to help anyone in need and never asking for anything back in return. He was a wonderful man and is much loved by our family, this song reminds me of him today ❤️🇭🇷🇦🇺
So sorry for your horrendous loss
טוו
God bless your father may he rest in peace and may you never disappoint him 👍
Wow you must be so proud of him. and no wonder
He sounds like an honest man, im sorry for your loss but glad you had the time with him that you did. To be loved and respected by family is undervalued by so many
My 90 year old father passed away last week. I was so blessed to bring home for his final days. I will never forget the last time I looked in my fathers eyes. There was joy. And then he slipped away. I’ll always have our memories, I dedicate this song to the best dad a girl could ever have had.
Beautiful words dear heart. I totally feel you.
(●￣(工)￣●)⊂(￣(ｴ)￣)⊃
As someone that lost my Father at a young age and am now a Father of 2 myself, this song pulls on the heart strings so damn hard ❤
I hope I’ll be around listening in in 2040. I grew up and I’ve grown old with Eric Clapton ! ❤
When you don’t have a big wedding you don’t think about those special moments that you get to enjoy. I lost my father nine years ago this week and I wish we had that father-daughter dance we deserved.
Lost my father today he was 93. It would take too long to tell you about him. He was steady as the rain, dependable. He had kind brown eyes but that wasn't his most obvious characteristic. I felt like I was closer to my Mom but my fathers eye's were always there. Not judging or panicking, rarely crying. They gave me strength.
I lost my Dad this February. He was 92. I thought because of the age it would help with his passing... No. How much wisdom our Dad's have given us? Let us pass this on to future generations the best we can! Loving thoughts Your way 🙏
@@lindascarborough5551 hi
Clapton guitar playing here is masterful. Excellent band as well. Steve Gadd is second to none. Eric's vocal and the back up vocals are spot on. 👌
I was raised by an adoring step-dad. This song made me appreciate him more than ever ❣❣❣
This mans ability to move past tragedy and personal challenges, is more so of a testimony as to who he is, than his music. I think this is eric claptons best performance , he has done it all and this piece of his work shows his faithfulness to his craft, absolutely amazing!
Agree
You nailed it!! I dunno how he was able to write and perform songs about such tragedies. To me that keeps opening up wounds.. but it's probably his coping mechanic though. And we love him for this .
Who can forget Tears in Heaven. Probably the greatest tragedy in his life. The way he takes the pain, all very personal pain, and creates such music is beyond comprehension.
Losing one's Father
And realizing that
What he taught you
Is something which is needed to teach one's own Son or
Daughter. That if you could see things the way your
Father saw them
You would be a
Champion for him and for
Yoursel.
Very Beautiful

He paid the highest Price for his Greatest, his Blood Ritual Sacrifice of "First Born" Son & his ( Soul ) for Fame & Fortune, given to him by the "ILLUMNATI" - aka "New World Order"......! Just like most of Hollywood actors & Singers.........!

@ juda Behur you talk one lot of shit
Yes, one of the greatest performers of our time ❤.
Lost my Dad in Feb 2017. I miss him tremendously. He loved Clapton. Happy Fathers Day to all the Dads out there. ♥️
5:33 I lost my father on Christmas Eve 1979 this song makes me think of him and gives my heart a boost brilliant 👍😀
You can feel the passion in Mr. Clapton's work. Phenomenal man. If this piece of music doesn't touch your heart, something's missing.
Totally in agreement with you! He is very passionate when he sings and plays his guitar !!! He touches my heart and my soul every day I listen to him. I love Clapton too much!!!
Clapton's guitar tone gets the hairs on your arms standing....
GOD broke the mold with Sting and Lil Stevie together on this one. Im 73 and blessed to have been there.
My dad is 83 and I don't.know what I would do without him
This always makes me think of God, our Heavenly Father
My dad also is gone. Such an awesome tribute to any father...
It’s deep, because he’s talking about his Heavenly Father, earthly father, and his son…his best song ever!!
My grandfather, who took the role of the father figure to me passed away 5 years ago. I would give see him just one more time in this world.
Eric Clapton & Company - Gawd dam! ... "It takes the artist to show us the vision".
