wow, I'm so sorry for you loss, dear all, God bless. I'm devastated to see my soul mate and cann't have her, I have to go on bt I feel I'm dying everyday many times yet I have to live, to marry someone else, to have kids with some one else...It's hard to die every day....
This is one of my favorite/least favorite's of Eric Clapton's songs. It's hauntingly sad, while oh so beautiful. It also usually moves me to tears. Although some believe that tears cleanse us of toxins: whether they be physical, emotional or psychological.
Not that it matters, this is yet another winner by Mr. Clapton. Through his pain or perceived pain, he touches us. What a gift.
today @ 4:30 i lost my cousin "brother" patrick bucchi, He fought the good fight with cancer but lost. Yesterday was his birthday. i'm drownding in a river of tears. he is with my mother, she and pat wait for us to join them.
This is so, so beautiful, Eric. I can relate to you in the loss of your child. It's the hardest thing I've ever gone through, still go through everyday, but they're in a better place than we are man. Great song and tune!
yeah though i walk in the valley of death i shall fear no evil
inner peace lets the events of our lives flow through us and it all becomes the wonderous gift of life as a human. the pain never leaves but the knowledge of how precious life is makes us grow towards our own inner peace
why cant people post less depressing comments? no offense meant to those you have lost, but i just came here to listen to some smooth relaxing music not become all sad and moody..... :S
after i lost my dear friends jack lupertino and carol broadhurst i locked myself in side my house and played this over and over for a week straight and cried til i couldn't cry anymore...tonight,7 years later i plated it again and although i still miss them, i didn't cry...it does get easier with time....and it is ok to cry...it's necessary! kat kelley

This is the most deep felt song I ever heard..all I can say is to whish my best to anybody who has lost a very loved one..it must be very haert and soul breaking! ...all the best and only true humbleness can take you out of a hard time like this...Viva Eric!
laura.... i love you so much it hurts..... vie learned from this that if i ever have someone in my life again i will not let a day go bye that i don't tell them how precious they are to me.. and you were , but i didn't tell you...:(.. forgive me...through all the hurt... i still love you more than anything...
My uncle who is no longer with us loved this song and we played at my 28 year old cousins funeral on 19/4/11 what a song Eric clapton legend luv to who have lost .
i so relate to this song in so many ways lost so much but gotta keep going still a lot of life to live I feel often like running and always feel like im drowning
My father got me into Clapton when Journeyman came out. I lost my Father in 2002 and still listen to Clapton when i think of him. this is for you dad. i love you and miss you everyday
You have to say this for dear 'Slow-Hand', he certainly owns the Melancholia Blubfest. Brilliant cheeky final touch to add strings - any pretender to his throne would have been booted into the 'Schmaltz' section but they probably reckoned Eric had paid his dues and his core fans would allow him *discreetly* shimmery strings. All good fun. Over the chocolate biscuits and Ovaltine.
Eric, I had not heard this tune before today! I locked myself away for a few years after my son died. I knew about your little boy, and I hurt for you! No one knows unless they have experienced the tragic loss of a son! Take care and God Bless you and your family. I don't know anyone in Tulsa that doesn't love Eric Clapton!! Keep on Keepin On ERIC! We're still " Livin On Tulsa Time." You are my hero for your strength and courage!
I'm drownding in a river of tears because, Cancer took my wife, my soulmate 10-30-07. Heart attack took my mother 01-21-08. Now my 25 yr. old daughter has been taken from me. 12-20-10. Funeral tomorrow. WHAT MORE CAN ONE MAN TAKE ???? But I have to keep going !!! One day I will see them again !!!!!!
Man! I lost my little boy some 10 years ago and that´ll never wash off. But I can tell you without lying, that life is maybe more beautiful now, and that you´ll get enough time and opportunities to make it right again. Love the one you´re with. I don´t know where you are from, but I´m an argentinian cryinig in madrid for you. I´m having a little boy on the 5th of May. I´ll name him Alejandro. I wish you The Best.
@Buckfever1954 Mister..... The Dear Lord is still carrying you every step of the way...If He didnt believe in you , He wouldn't throw things at ya:) He wont give ya more than you can handle:) God Bless ya Sugar:) Hang in there and stay strong not only for yourself and family but now others that believe in ya:) Ciao:)
Sir, I don't know you at all. But seeing you be strong like that, only makes me want to be stronger. Thank you for sharing your story with us. I wish you only good things. May God bless you greatly.
@Buckfever1954 I'm so sorry about your lost bro ... and really wish blessing for them all and rest on heaven ... please accept my wishing .... I'm So Sorry For Your Lost ....
Im crying a river of tears for not having to kiss and hold my two twin boys every evening before they go to sleep... Im crying a river of tears for not being together with my boys every day teaching them about life.... Im crying a river of tears because im not able to dry up there tears when they cry. Im crying a river of tears that they dont miss their dad and im not gonna have them this christmas... Magnus and Mathias dad loves you and will never leave you guys.. I will see you again soon...
I am sorry for your tears, Eric. Just please know, that even though your son's death was so very untimely, the Lord is taking great care of him. You will be reunited one day. Please don't let that be before our Lord requests. Thanks for all of your heart-felt music. You are . . . I can't even describe. I have been following your music for all of my life. And NO, I'm not telling how old I am. But old enough to know how awesome and moving you are, dear Sir. -- B Parker . . .
