lost my son July 3rd the pain is unbearable.I cry everyday I just can't believe he's gone. Just 19 days.He was 33 yrs old. He was a good man, agood father and a good son.He never disrespected me. He worked 2 jobs to take care of his 3 girls and 2 kids that wee not his. Honest work. His birthday was to be Sept 8th. Sept 12th he was to marry everythingwas paid for. Instead we had a funeral, I love this song so much.. I miss him so I miss his smile I loved him so much.Sad Mom
Gloria Best So sorry I cry just hearing about what happened to his son. Probably 1,000 times worse. Just remember he is in good hands in heaven. God will take care of everything.
Your so welcome! I can`t imagine the pain you are going through. Everything happens for a reason. s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/ae/cd/a6/aecda6c1cda26b682596114bec20bed4.jpg My prayers are out to you and your son tonight :)
Hello Muslims have been stereotyped nowadays but this message is from me: May Allah (GOD) rest the soul of your beloved son in Jannah (HEAVEN) & may the LORD shower his blessings on him & your family, & may you all meet again in Heaven Ameen (amen). Life is very short for every living soul, we must accept this as every soul shall taste death. All we can do as people is pray for all & May Allah shine the light over your son in paradise ❤️ Beautiful song & stay strong lots of Love Vintage Museum Zak....
+MrApocalisse I have been deeply depressed for long and if you let yourself feel something else, then you will open up to things that will take your mind off what is 'bad times'. No one else will do this for you, talking with others will only help you so far. In the end you need to decide that it is life you choose, and you will not regret it. Place yourself outside your comfort zone in small portions. Stop and just sit down whe then sun shows itself, take deep breaths and imagine yourself doing... whatever. Choose life. Keep on strong my friend
My 18 year old brother took his own life this past Sunday. He left behind his 16 year old sister (me) his parents, his friends and a huge family. He never told anyone what was happening inside of him. We were blind sided with his passing. So I beg you, if you haven't told anyone, please please please reach out to someone.
+D Jones I'm so sorry for your loss. His pain must have clouded his thoughts to the point that all he could think about was ending his life to end his pain. I think there was nothing you or anyone could have done after he made up his mind. Please do not blame yourself.
Just lost my dad today. Even though he did’nt spend his life with me and left me since I was a child, he will always be my father and nothing can change that fact. RIP dad, I love you no matter what u have done to me and my mom. Rest in peace.
Hambog Ng Sagpro Krew my dad was the same and physically and mentally abused me when I was young but there is not a day that goes by that I don't miss him
Hambog u lost your dad today and u r on RU-vid writing this comment its very much weird instead of sympathizing your family members u r on RU-vid...very funny and strange.
Hambog Ng Sagpro Krew Sabi na nga po sabi ko parang familya tong sound na to hahaha kaylan po kayo gagawa ng mga films 2018 na po kaylan po ulit kayo mag papasaya ng mga tao idol?
This song really helps me continue on after my daughter was killed. She was my only child and losing her has been the hardest thing to go thru ever. This song is my only wish.... If i see you in heaven
This song is one of the most beautifully written, heartfelt songs I have ever heard. Never fails to bring a tear to my eye. As Eric wrote this song, there must have been more tears going into the paper than ink. I respect him for creating such a beautiful song in his son's honor.
Me and my real dad used to listen to this all the time in the car, when he past away from liver cancer when I was 8, I would cry whenever this song comes on and I still do. It's just so sad ... R.I.P. Daddy
I can't express my sorrow for your loss. 30 yrs ago yesterday a man became a hero. I feel that the people in Heaven miss us more than we miss them, but they are also so excited to share their lives with us and show us all the great things Heaven has to offer. Look forward to all the excitement and sharing to come. Enjoy your time here and know with overwhelming joy that there will be enternal happiness together in Heaven. Thank you for your contributions to the world. Much love and respect. I'm nobody speacial and to be honest don't know much of your music, but my father told me what this song meant and it was in my heart and soul today and I felt compelled to say something. There is so much more I would love to say, but my mind is telling me to shut up.
Think of my beautiful daughter I lost Feb. 20th 2016. With tears rolling down my face. I just pray there is a heaven. The thought of having to live this life without her is killing me. I live. and miss you my beautiful baby girl. You are always going to be my Treasure not in just name but in every way of life.
I know my brother and my dad are in heaven. This song helped me get my life back together after my brother was killed in a traffic accident. RIP Big Bro, you're still my hero.
I've lost my father in 2008, lost my mom in 2009 and I've lost my husband in 2016....miss them all so much but I still got a job to be done with, raising my beautiful kid's
I'm an agnostic :) Honestly I really hope there is a God, there is a Heaven. And I'm okay with being in doubt of its existence. People should believe what they want to, it's the most important
***** Yes very true! I believe in God 100% but veryone has the right to believe what they want and I hope you know that even if you don't believe that there is a God or for anyone really, I want you to know that he loves you!
***** Aren't Catholics christian also? ...I'm probably wrong but I thought anyone that believes in Christ is considered a "Christian" see, CHRISTianity....Yeah...which is totally irrevant but I had to say it lol...Not Catholic though lol
..just lost my 9yr old son last year,december 2018..listening diz song makes me cry, as i miss my son so much..i miss his hug,his kisses and his sweetness..may you rest in peace Clarence..i know you are at the hand of the Father,and no more tears in there..just missing you, until we meet again son..
Will Federowic sadness and emotions are subjective. What affects and resonates with someone may not do so as profoundly for someone else, and vice versa.
Lists like that are horseshit anyway, exactly for the reason Kyle here stated. Why make any kind of "definitive" lists about subjective topics, it's a futile effort. Not denying this is a moving song though.
+Suzy Yeaton thoughts go out to you Suzy. I know those who have destroyed their life over either booze or drugs, Get off on life, you DONT need either one, I have a close friend who destroyed his liver , Yes this is what you have to live with at the end,
+Suzy Yeaton I started drinking and drugging at the age of 15 and went through 23 years of what seemed like living hell,but but the grace of God I got sober 5 years ago,and unfortunately instead of drinking I got hooked on
So sorry for the loss of your little boy . My boy passed and I know what your broken heart feels. There are no words for the pain. I miss my son and feel horrible every day.They are now living with Jesus, both are at peace. Thank you for the beautiful song.
One of my nephews went up to heaven 1 week before Christmas! Then 2 months later his father (my brother) also went to join his son in heaven! I miss them both dearly, but what helps me so very much is knowing that they are together again and also that I will see them both and so very many more for eternity when I'm called home. This song is so dear to my heart and just what I need to hear especially at a time like this knowing tomorrow is my brothers1st birthday no longer here on earth. Happy birthday in heaven ❤🎂😇
My grandmother died , And was terrible for me cause she was like my second mom, my friend, my advicer, I used to tell her all my jokes. The worst thing is that I couldn't hold her and say : GOOD BYE 😢😥 "I must be strong and carry on"
I am a Christian and truly believe that Eric Clapton will be reunited with his son. Such an incredible tragedy. Such a beautiful tribute to his son. My heart and prayers are with you Eric ❤️
I lost my friend in the Orlando shooting, I miss him every day. I can't wait for the day when we are reunited in heaven and we are both young forever and it'll be like old times
I can't imagine what everyone that lost someone in that horrible tragedy are feeling. I lost a son because of a rare condition when I was 4 months pregnant 21 years ago and I'm still not over it. This song always makes me think of him and cry. All I can say is try to concentrate on loving the people you still have in your life because life and love are so precious and can be taken from all us at any moment.
I lost my grandson, I raised him for 9 years and I have never felt such pain, I know how Eric felt.....I have lost a husband grandparents my younger brother but losing my grandson just about killed me, I imagine a child would be the same,,,I wish I had this song played
when i listen to this song, i always realise how much i love my Brothers. Don't worry, they're both alive, but i'm afraid to lose them...i couldn't live without my little Brothers...i wouldn't be strong enough to take all that pain...
My beloved pet, my cat Mindo died 25.12.2017. Since then I´ve happened to hear this song 3 times, when driving my car. It makes me peaceful. One of my favourite songs also before. Thank you for putting also the lyrics here.
We come here most likely because we have lost someone dear to our heart. This song touches my heart very deeply as I have lost my dear son to cancer. He was 15y, 6 months, 3 days and 2 hours when he died in between my arms and I could not do a thing just keep him as comfortable as possible. Only the unlucky parents know how painful it is to lose a daughter or a son. Part of me died forever and ever... life never the same anymore, it's coming to 5 years now and every day I look to his pictures all around the house, kissing them and thinking you should be here enjoying life... we should swap places me and you, but unfortunately it's not possible... No pain in heaven!
I hope your son found peace Eric, when one of my twins passed away suddenly at 7 weeks I had no idea how to choose music for her funeral then I stumbled across this and after reading about that awful tragedy I felt so connected to this song.. may all of our lost love ones find eternal peace xx
I miss you mom, it was all very sudden. we celebrated xmas and new year together healthy and happily but after 5 days you left us. It hurts until now, its hard to move on you teach me everything but u did not teach me how to live life without you. Mom, forever and always i love you.
This is literally what happened to me this year. Except it was 7 days. My mom was diagnosed with cancer in june and gone by jan 7 2018. 50 years old 5 kids 3 grand kids.
much sympathy to all on here who have lost someone. this song and "my father's eyes" are my tribute to my father. it's been 25 tears and I still pray . God bless
What's with people showing little to no respect to Clapton and others by stating that people who believe in heaven are delusional or that they hope his son is in hell? Many people nowadays have no soul, no compassion, and no respect.
Regardless of the fact that i am an atheist *and not a spiritual one* A portion of atheists really are just lost bitter people who chose their views as it suited them just like anyone else. I dont know the specific stats, its tough to gage. But the other portion of atheists are atheists for literal reasons. Ignoring that. The concept presented is not even slightly lost on me. Truly a moving philosophical statement no matter what you may think of it personally.
The second eric clapton starts singing is the second i start sobbing. Miss you Dad 15/5/12 I listen it every day after I have lost my son a month ago....thanks Eric for this amazing song ! R.I.P Conor Clapton..
This song is so full of pain, for a lost loved one. Back in autum 2000 I lost my son, so I find comfort listen to this song, when the sorrow is too much for me. Thank you mr. Clapton, you are not alone, having lost someone deeply loved.
My British mum is gone. And you know what? Eric Clapton grew up in the same neighborhood as me mum. My mum knew Eric, as a little boy, playing on the East End of London-Hackney:) :)
this song I dedicate to alot of people but this goes out to truly my three favorite people in the world my best friends sister and her girlfriend who were killed in the Orlando shooting and my best friend who overdosed in February also just wanted to my best friend who overdosed also was battling aids
That's terrible. I'm very sorry. The shooting was shocking for the whole country to hear about, but it must be even more shocking and heartbreaking to know the victims. And I too have lost friends to overdose recently. I know it's hard. God Bless you.
Tears in Heaven : Eric Clapton. Awesome !!! I was crying happy tears! Thankyou Eric. Your a great warm song writer that really puts alot of heart ❤ in your songs.
I've listened to this song daily since January 5th. I lost my sweet girl Hadley Grace at 22 days, and 13 minutes old. It happened so fast. The pain is unbearable. I'm so angry at god for taking her, but he is a forgiving god. When I pass, and our souls meet on a breeze. It will be tears of happiness, for my heart will be shattered no more. R.I.P. My Sweet Girl I'll love you always, and forever more....
I know how painfully it is to loose a child. My daughter was born with serous health problems. My Angel lived for 3and a half months. I spent many a hr begging please don't take her away from me. She's at peace now
Wow, just went to a friends celebration of life and this was played first. Talk about emotions when you here this. This truly is one of the deepest songs of expression and sorrow that I’ve ever heard. You know Clapton’s heart was shattered when he wrote this. I’ll never listen to this the same way again. It’s a heartbreaker. God Bless you Conner and Eric.
My grandmother is dying. She helped raise me as a mother figure, and though I have had a blessed 34 years with her, part of me selfishly wishes for more time. She has dementia, heart failure, renal failure and is bleeding internally at age 91. I hope God finally relieves her of her pain and struggle and gives her peace. I love you Grandma ........Lost her shortly after this comment. August 10th 2018. She just celebrated her first birthday 11/13 and saw her first snowfall in heaven Thursday.
This is for my grandmother 5/5/2018 congestive heart failure at 74 she lived a good life helped us all has 45 grandchildren and greats we are HER LEGACY 👏👏👏👏I miss you MAE JO
I am raised by my grandmother too. She is still in good health and we are doing a lot of things together so I really can't imagine how you feel. I know it will kill me. I'm so scared for that moment. So sorry for your loss, stay strong!
Whenever I see Eric play this song on stage, I know that Conor is just watching infront of him, since the audience are covered in the shadows, the darkness is for Eric to see his lovely son. Massive respect for you Eric, your son is rocking in heaven I just know it. And when you two meet its something sweet at the end.
This song was played at my cousins funeral..This year on the 11th of December my cousin Delaina will have been gone for 20 years. My mom got the call on Delaina's birthday,February 3rd 1998 that she was expecting a baby girl. Ever since then even though I never met Delaina I've felt a bond with her. I pray shes my Guardian Angel. I love you Laina. 💔❤️💌
I like this song but everytime I hear it I think of a few funerals I've been to and I imagine the intense pain of losing a child in the way Clapton did, seriously when I was a kid I asked my dad about the song, maybe 1997-98 or so and I kept thinking that his son should be alive.
Can't listen to the song without start crying. RIP the 10 people died during the shooting act yesterday in the evening in Munich! Your souls never die!
My best friend passed away today. She was loved by so many people and this song made me feel emotionally stable. She was a beautiful women. Rest In Peace Santana I will love you forever
Enjoy your time around, wherever your loved ones might be, they'll surely want you to live every bit of your life in the fullest and will be waiting for you.
Just enjou your life bro. You love them but who love you. They don't want you to go to Heaven now. If time is come it will come. All you need to do is waiting for that time and enjoy your life while you still alive.
I'm an atheist. But I still respect other peoples' views. And I still LOVE this song as one of the most emotionally powerful songs of all time. Beautiful tune and wonderful lyrics.
I just had to listen to this song..I dont know why. Although its sad, it brings me a sort of peace. My heart goes out to anybody out there going through a difficult time. Stay strong❤🌹
last 2 weeks I lost my father, he passed away by accident. I don't even say goodbye to him. and I just want to tell him how lucky to be his daughter. I fucking miss you dad!!!! T^T
sweetieskk I'm so sorry to hear that. I lost my dad goin on 3 years in october, and its still hard. Best wishes to you miss. Keep an eye out for signs, I don't know what you believe, and it sounds ridiculous based off popular perception of things but, from my experience, you'll get signs. It's incredibly comforting. Sorry for my ramble, I hope you're doing well, and are getting through this. Feel free to PM me if you need someone to talk too.
It’s rare when I can listen to the entire song. The first few chords knock me to my knees and I start sobbing like a baby. 40 years is a long time and the feeling is still raw. Loosing my best friend, my love, my reason for being was just enough to make me give up and let go. This song gives me hope, I can feel his pain.
ive lost a lot of people in my life, but the one person I dedicate this song to is my grandfather Art. Arthur Forrest Whitmarsh passed away on February 8th 1993. 2 months and 2 days before I was born. I hear all of these things about him from my dad, but it's not the same. I miss my grandfather that I've never met.
My husband passed away on Jan 3rd 2016, I know he went to heaven he was a good husband, a good father, a good son, a good friend. This song give me a peace in my heart.
Daddy Karl this is for you love and miss you so much... it's so hard on momma that your not here to be with her any more but at least you are not in any more pain or suffering
I lost my mom Sept 2018, then my dad Sept 2019. I miss them a whole lot, they were my everything. This is the worst pain ever. But I know they're together with God
I lost my Dad in Feb-2015 to bone cancer. I've been losing my Mom to dementia for five years. I know the heartache you feel. Stay strong and know you too will see them in heaven.
My little girl passed away a week ago, I miss her more than words can say, but I know she is safe now, no pain anymore and she can play, run and jump. I love you so much my brave little girl, 100 billion kisses to you to the heaven.
this song is to a few special people but mainly my grandfather that i lost last Monday. still cant believe u left us papa but u and nana are now together forever like your head stone says. :'(
