Tears in Heaven

To all who have felt the pangs of death, the torment from losing your
dear ones, there is this 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, 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 throught 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 begin' please, begin' 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 say 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.

- Eric Clapton

Penned by my hand on the 14th of Chronos, in the year 315 AF.
