One of Eric' s the sweetest songs in my opinion. Hands up if no one doesn't think about that love who put the clouds around you and make the tears fall down ...
This has been the haunting soundtrack for me since my soulmate left me 6½ years ago now. Eric Clapton has a way with heartache. Long live him and this song. (It's currently Feb 2023.)
This man sings love songs like no one else! The greatest verse, in all the love of the songs combined is, if I had to choose a place to die it would be in your arms!
I was in 5th grade when I first heard this song. I just moved into Canada, didn't know a lot of English and certainly didn't know who Eric Clapton was at the time. But great music has no cultural or language barriers. Though I didn't understood any of the words (except the "it was you"), I was drawn by the beautiful guitar/wind serenade and heartfelt vocals. I would get so excited whenever this song comes on the radio. 20 years later, this song now has a whole different meaning....
