Eric Clapton - You Were There Lyrics

You Were There Lyrics - Eric Clapton

We made the distance
Yeah we made the day.
You made all the difference
'Cause you found the way.
Without your wisdom
Lord where would we be
Lost in the wilderness
Somewhere out at sea.
But you were there
Through the days of wine and madness
When I'd always put you down.
You were there
Through my joys and my sadness
And you never let me down.
You found the meaning
And helped me to see
Where I was going to
All that I could be.
Without permission
You turned the key.
You climbed the prison wall
Deep inside of me.
You were there
Through the days of wine and madness
When I'd turn and put, put you down.
You were there
Through my joys and my sadness
And you never let me down.
You were there
Through the days of wine and madness
When I'd turn and put, put you down.
You were there
Through my joys and my sadness
And you never let me down.
Let me down.
You were there.
You were there.
You were there

Eric Clapton - You Look Wonderful Tonight Lyrics

You Look Wonderful Tonight Lyrics - Eric Clapton

It's late in the evening, she's wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make up and brushes her long blond hair
And then she asks me,”Do I look alright?"
And I say, “Yes, you look wonderful tonight”

We go to a party and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me
And then she asks me, “Do you feel alright?”
And I say, “Yes, I feel wonderful tonight”

I feel wonderful, because I see
The love light in your eyes and the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you

It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head
So I give her the car keys, she helps me to bed
And then I tell her as I turn out the light
I say, “ My darling, you were wonderful tonight
Oh, my darling, you were wonderful tonight”

Eric Clapton - Wrapping Paper Lyrics

Wrapping Paper Lyrics - Eric Clapton

Wrapping paper in the gutter
Moving slowly as the wind on the sea
Faces calling, waves moving
In your picture on a wall of a house of old times
(Can you hear me?)
Can you hear me?
(Can you hear me?)
Wandering sadly

In the city, feeling pretty
Down and out and making love to you on the shore
(Ruined buildings, faces empty)
In the picture as I gaze ahead and don't see
(That they're calling)
That they're calling
(That they're calling)
Wandering sadly

Shattered windows, stairs to nowhere
(Hear you calling)
Hear you calling
(Hear you calling)
As I wander so sadly

Wish I knew what you'd done to me
Turned me on, things I never knew
It's all broken, weeds are growing
Wish I was going home to the house by the shore
(Where you loved me)
Where you loved me
(Where you loved me)
Loved me so sadly

Someday I'll get back, somehow I'll do it
I'll arrive there and you'll be there to meet me
(Walk together, tread the weeds down)
Kiss again in the picture on the wall
(Where I loved you)
In the old house
(Where I loved you)
Loved you so well

Eric Clapton - Worried Life Blues Lyrics

Worried Life Blues Lyrics - Eric Clapton

Oh lordy lord, Oh lordy lord.
It hurts me so bad for us to part.
But someday baby,
I ain't gonna worry my life any more.

You're on my mind every place I go.
How much I love you, nobody know.
Yeah, someday babe,
I ain't gonna worry my life any more.

So many days since you went away.
I've had to worry both night and day.
Yeah, but someday babe,
I ain't gonna worry my life any more.

So many nights since you've been gone.
I've been worried, grieving my life alone.
Yeah, but someday babe,
I ain't gonna worry my life any more.

So that's my story and this is all I've got to say to you:
Bye bye, baby, I don't care what you do.
'Cause someday darling,
I won't have to worry my life any more.

Oh lordy lord, Oh lordy lord.
It hurts me so bad for us to part.
Oh, but someday baby,
I ain't gonna worry my life any more.

Eric Clapton - World Of Pain Lyrics

World Of Pain Lyrics - Eric Clapton

Outside my window is a tree
Outside my window is a tree
There only for me and it stands in the gray of the city
No time for pity for the tree or me

There is a world of pain
In the falling rain around me

Is there a reason for today?
Is there a reason for today?
Do you remember? I can hear all the cries of the city
No time for pity for a growing tree

There is a world of pain
In the falling rain around me

Outside my window is a tree
Outside my window is a tree
There only for me and it stands in the gray of the city
No time for pity for the tree or me

There is a world of pain
In the falling rain around me

Wonderful Tonight Lyrics - Eric Clapton

It's late in the evening
She's wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make up
And brushes her long blonde hair
And then she asks me
Do I look alright
And I say yes, you look wonderful tonight

We go to a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
That's walking around with me
And then she asks me
Do you feel alright
And I say yes, I feel wonderful tonight

I feel wonderful
Because I see the love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize
How much I love you

It's time to go home now
And I've got an aching head
So I give her the car keys
She helps me to bed
And then I tell her
As I turn out the light
I say my darling, you were wonderful tonight
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight

Willie And The Hand Jive Lyrics - Eric Clapton

I know a cat named Way-Out Willie,
Got a cool little chick named Rocking Millie.
He can walk and stroll and Susie Q
And do that crazy hand jive, too.

Mama, mama, look at Uncle Joe
Doing the hand jive with sister Flo.
Grandma gave baby sister a dime

Eric Clapton - Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad Lyrics

Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad Lyrics - Eric Clapton

Got to find me a way
To take me back to yesterday.
How can I ever hope to forget you?

Won't you show me a place
Where I can hide my lonely face?
I know you're going to break my heart if I let you.

Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?

Like a moth to a flame,
Like a song without a name,
I've never been the same since I met you.

Like a bird on the wing,
I've got a brand new song to sing,
I can't keep from singing about you.

Chorus

I'm beginning to see
What a fool you've made of me.
I might have to break the law when I find you.

Stop running away

Eric Clapton - Who Am I Telling You Lyrics

Who Am I Telling You Lyrics - Eric Clapton

(feat. J.J. Cale)

It don't take no fool to love you
You stand out in any crowd
And I know men who want to own you
I can hear them talking loud
There ain't no point in just me talking
Who am I telling you?

But you don't got yourself together
And you can bet whithin in you
I just realised
I just realised
Who am I telling you?

You never lose, you are a winner
It's a simple thing for you
If I'm standing at a crossroad
You know exactly what to do
From this moment on I loved you
Somewhere in between I learned
I'm just reaching out to touch you
It's the point of no return
I just realised
I just realised
And I just realised
Who am I, who am I, who am I telling you?

I just realised
I just realised
And I just realised
Who am I, who am I, who am I telling you?

Eric Clapton - White Room Lyrics

White Room Lyrics - Eric Clapton

By jack bruce and pete brown

In the white room with black curtains near the station.
Blackroof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings.
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes.
Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment.

Ill wait in this place where the sun never shines;
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves.

You said no strings could secure you at the station.
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.
I walked into such a sad time at the station.
As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning.

Ill wait in the queue when the trains come back;
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves.

At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd.
Consolation for the old wound now forgotten.
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes.
Shes just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.

Ill sleep in this place with the lonely crowd;
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves.

Eric Clapton - While My Guitar Gently Weeps Lyrics

While My Guitar Gently Weeps Lyrics - Eric Clapton

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know why nobody told you
How to unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you

I look at the world and I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I don't know how you were inverted
No one alerted you

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
Look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps

Eric Clapton - When You Got A Good Friend Lyrics

When You Got A Good Friend Lyrics - Eric Clapton

(Robert Johnson)

When you got a good friend, that will stay right by your side [2x]
Give her all of your spare time, try to love and treat her right

I mistreated my baby, but I can't see no reason why [2x]
Anytime I think about it, I just wring my hands and cry

Wonder, could I bear apologize, Or would she sympathize with me
Mmm, Or would she sympathize with me
She's a brownskin woman, just as sweet as a girlfriend can be

Mmm, baby I may be right or wrong
Baby, it your opinion, I may be right or wrong
Watch your close friend, baby, then you enemies can't do you no harm

When you got a good friend that will stay right by your side [2x]
Give her all of your spare time, love and treat her right

Eric Clapton - When This War Is Over Lyrics

When This War Is Over Lyrics - Eric Clapton

(feat. J.J. Cale)

When this war is over it will be a better day
When this war is over it will be a better day
But it won't bring back those poor boys in the grave

Ain't no sense in the action, killing people all the time
Ain't no sense no the action, killing people all the time
When it happen on the street we call that a crime

These old boys are leading us somewhere - that is plain to see
I don't know much of nothing, still it troubles me
Got to find another way, this one ain't the way to go
Got to get a plan, change our ways or no...

When this war is over it will be a better day
When this war is over it will be a better day
But it won't bring back those poor boys in the grave

When this war is over, it will be a better day
When this war is over, it will be a better day
But it won't bring back those poor boys in the grave

When My Heart Beats Like A Hammer Lyrics - Eric Clapton

When my heart starts beatin' like a hammer
And my eyes get full of tears
Oh, when my heart starts beatin' like a hammer
And my eyes get full of tears

You know you've only been gone twenty-four hours, baby
Oh, but it seems like, it seems like a million years

Now if I ever mistreated you, baby
You know I didn't mean no harm
Oh, if I ever mistreated you, baby
God knows I didn't mean no harm

You know, I'm just a little country boy, baby
And I was raised right down on the cotton farm

Oh, you give me so much trouble, baby
Babe, that I don't know what to do
Oh, you give me so much trouble, baby
Baby, I don't know, I don't know what to do

Oh, I ain't got nothin', I ain't got nothin' now, baby
Babe, and it's all on, it's all on account of you

Eric Clapton - What A Bringdown Lyrics

What A Bringdown Lyrics - Eric Clapton

By ginger bakerDainties in a jam-jar, parson's colour in the sky.Water in a fountain doesn't get me very high.Moby dick and albert making out with captain bligh.So you know what you know in your head.Will you, won't you, do you, don't you know when a head's dead? What a bringdown!Winter leader lou is grownin' 'ampsteads in the north.Betty b's been wearin' daisies since the twenty-fourth.Wears a gunner when there's one more coming forth.And you know what you know in your head.Will you, won't you, do you, don't you wanna go to bed? What a bringdown!There's a tea-leaf about in the family,Full of nothin' their fairy tale.There's a tea-leaf a-floatin' now for rosalie,They'll believe in ding-dong bell.Take a butchers at the dodginesses of old bill.Aristotle's orchestra are living on the pill.One of them gets very very prickly when he's ill.And you know what you know in your head.Will you, won't you, do you, don't you wanna make more bread? What a bringdown!
