tears in heaven

These are the words of the song we have heard in class recently. As you know, it was written and composed by Eric Clapton under very sad circumstances.

If you want to find out some more about this singer, here you are some links to his webpage and to wikipedia.

By the way, Clapton wrote about his sadness and his son, if you had to sing a song, what would you sing about???

TEARS IN HEAVEN

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will 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 knee
Time can break your heart
Have you begging please
Begging please

 

(instrumental)

 

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
Will 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

    Hi Maribel!
    If I have to write a lyric of a song, I suppose I will write about chances, thats moments that can change your life in a second, for good or for bad. Is the fate!
    See you

    Hi again 🙂

    Well, I think that if I had to write a good song I’d talk about freedom, or love. It’s typical to talk about that topics, but they are the most successful ones (at least for me).
    And, I don’t know… maybe I would try with social problems, or something like that.

    And that’s all =)

    see you!!

    If I write a song,this talk about the love because in this moment I felt in love and is that I feel =)
    the song will be very romantic and beautiful.

    and that’s all =)

    hello!
    If I must write a song I would write about young people’s actual life,problems, good things, studies…
    I think that this would be very comercial because the song will tell that all young people has more or less the same problems.

    and this si my opinion

    Bye! XX

    Hello Maribel!

    If I had to write a song now I don’t know of what it could talk and I think the topic would be about something that I were feeling at that moment… But I suppose I’d write a love song or a song that protests against something… I don’t know about what exactly, but I’d try to be original and to express my emotions.

    That’s all :)!

    Hi Mariblel!
    If I was an artist and I had to write a song, I would talk about the poetical thing that can be the life, about the death and the injustices and depravet minds in the society. And for finally I write about my state of mind.
    Bye!

    Hi Maribel!
    I suppose that if i had to write a song, I would write the most stupid song that I can create, like El Chiki-Chiki or La Barbacoa. Tt can seem strange, but in fact this kind of songs are successfuly songs,they become “The summer song” a lot of people heard them, so if you are the song’s creator you will earn a lot of money.
    Well this is my opinion,
    see you soon.

    Hello Maribel!

    If I had to write a song (I’ve never written a song) probably I would write it about sex or about feminine masturbation because it’s a topic that people never talk about.

    Bye

    Hello people!

    I don’t know of what I will write a song but I think that I would write of my expiriences in my life and really I would talk about love.

    Love is the most popular topic that songs talk. Every singer or group write any song of it.

    Everyone would feel identify with this topic. It’s very easy to write and feel.

    Bye! Good week-end!
