Tears In Heaven by Eric Clapton and Will Jennings Would you know my name If I saw you in heaven? Would 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 knees. Time can break your heart, Have you begging please, begging please. 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? Would 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. Layla by Eric Clapton and Jim Gordon What'll you do when you get lonely And nobody's waiting by your side? You've been running and hiding much too long. You know it's just your foolish pride. Layla, you've got me on my knees. Layla, I'm begging, darling please. Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind. I tried to give you consolation When your old man had let you down. Like a fool, I fell in love with you, Turned my whole world upside down. Chorus Let's make the best of the situation Before I finally go insane. Please don't say we'll never find a way And tell me all my love's in vain. Chorus Chorus Pretending by Jerry Lynn Williams How many times must we tell the tale? How many times must we fall? Living in lost memory You just recalled Working on the sound of the band Trying to get the music right Two go out working Three stay home at night That's when she said she was pretending Like she knew the plan That's when I knew she was pretending Pretending to understand Pretending, pretending Pretending, pretending Satisfied but lost in love Situations change You're never who you used to think you are How strange Repeat First Chorus Bridge I get lost in alibis Sadness can't prevail Everybody knows strong love Can't fail Don't be pretending about how you feel Don't be pretending that your love is real Don't be pretending about how you feel Don't be pretending that your love is real Bridge Blue Eyes Blue by Diane Warren I thought that you'd be loving me. I thought you were the one who'd stay forever. But now forever's come and gone And I'm still here alone. 'Cause you were only playing, You were only playing with my heart. I was never waiting, I was never waiting for the tears to start. It was you who put the clouds around me. It was you who made the tears fall down. It was you who broke my heart in pieces. It was you, it was you who made my blue eyes blue. Oh, I never should have trusted you. I thought that I'd be all you need. In your eyes I thought I saw my heaven. And now my heaven's gone away And I'm out in the cold. 'Cause you had me believing, You had me believing in a lie. Guess I couldn't see it, I guess I couldn't see it till I saw goodbye. Chorus 'Cause you were only playing, You were only playing with my heart. I was never waiting, I was never waiting for the tears to start. It was you who put the clouds around me. It was you. Chorus Oh, I never should have trusted you. Oh, I never should have trusted you. Oh, I never should have trusted you. Change The World by Tommy Sims, Gordon Kenney and Wayne Kirkpatrick If I can reach the stars, Pull one down for you, Shine it on my heart So you could see the truth: That this love I have inside Is everything it seems. But for now I find It's only in my dreams. And I can change the world, I will be the sunlight in your universe. You would think my love was really something good, Baby if I could change the world. And if I could be king, Even for a day, I'd take you as my queen; I'd have it no other way. And our love would rule This kingdom we had made. Till then I'd be a fool, Wishing for the day... That I can change the world, I would be the sunlight in your universe. You would think my love was really something good, Baby if I could change the world. Baby if I could change the world. I could change the world, I would be the sunlight in your universe. You would think my love was really something good, Baby if I could change the world. Baby if I could change the world. Baby if I could change the world. Before You Accuse Me by Elias McDaniel Before you accuse me, take a look at yourself Before you accuse me, take a look at yourself You say I've been spending my money on other women You've been taking money from someone else I called your mama 'bout three or four nights ago I called your mama 'bout three or four nights ago Well your mother said "Son" "Don't call my daughter no more" Chorus Come back home baby, try my love one more time Come back home baby, try my love one more time If I don't go on and quit you I'm gonna lose my mind Chorus It's In The Way That You Use It by Eric Clapton and Peter Robertson It's in the way that you use it, It comes and it goes. It's in the way that you use it, Boy don't you know. And if you lie you will lose it, Feelings will show. So don't you ever abuse it, Don't let it go. Nobody's right till somebody's wrong. Nobody's weak till somebody's strong. No one gets lucky till luck comes along. Nobody's lonely till somebody's gone. Repeat First Chorus Repeat First Chorus Repeat Second Chorus I've seen dark skies, never like this. Walked on some thin ice, never like this. I've told you white lies, never like this. Looked into true eyes, never like this. Repeat First Chorus Forever Man by Jerry Lynn Williams How many times must I tell you babe, How many bridges I've got to cross? How many times must I explain myself Before I can talk to the boss, 'Fore I can talk to the boss? How many times must I say I love you Before you finally understand? Won't you be my forever woman? I'll try to be your forever man, Try to be your forever man. Repeat Second Verse Forever man, forever man, forever man. Forever man, forever man, forever man. Try to be your forever man.

Running On Faith by Jerry Lynn Williams Lately I've been running on faith What else can a poor boy do? But my world will be right When love comes over you Lately I've been talking in my sleep I can't imagine what I'd have to say Except my world will be right When love comes back your way I've always been One to take each and every day Seems like by now I'd find a love who cares just for me Then we'd go running on faith All of our dreams would come true And our world will be right When love comes over me and you Chorus Then we'd go running on faith All of our dreams would come true And our world will be right When love comes over me and you When love comes over you She's Waiting by Eric Clapton and Peter Robinson She's waiting for another love. She's waiting for another love. She's been waiting for another love, Someone that she can show into her heart. And when she finally finds a stronger love, Your whole world's gonna fall apart. Chorus You've been abusing her for far too long; Think you're a king and she's your pawn. Get ready now, 'cause pretty soon She'll be gone and you'll be on your own. Chorus I see the hunger burning in her eye; Any fool could see there's something wrong. You keep pretending not to care, But I will hear you sing a different song. Chorus Waiting for another lover, Hoping for the time that she'll find another... River Of Tears by Eric Clapton and Simon Climie It's three miles to the river That would carry me away, And two miles to the dusty street That I saw you on today. It's four miles to my lonely room Where I will hide my face, And about half a mile to the downtown bar That I ran from in disgrace. Lord, how long have I got to keep on running, Seven hours, seven days or seven years? All I know is, since you've been gone I feel like I'm drowning in a river, Drowning in a river of tears. Drowning in a river. Feel like I'm drowning, Drowning in a river. In three more days, I'll leave this town And disappear without a trace. A year from now, maybe settle down Where no one knows my face. I wish that I could hold you One more time to ease the pain, But my time's run out and I got to go, Got to run away again. Still I catch myself thinking, One day I'll find my way back here. You'll save me from drowning, Drowning in a river, Drowning in a river of tears. Drowning in a river. Feels like I'm drowning, Drowning in the river. Lord, how long must this go on? Drowning in a river, Drowning in a river of tears. (I) Get Lost by Eric Clapton I'm sorry. Why should I say I'm sorry? If I hurt you, You know you've hurt me too. But you get lost inside your tears, And there is nothing I can do, 'Cause I get lost inside my fear That I am nothing without you. You're angry. Why shouldn't you be angry? With what we've been through, Well I get angry too. Chorus 'Cause I am nothing without you. Why should we have taken so long To be looking inside of our mind? Everything we tried went wrong. Are we worried 'bout what we might find? I'm sorry, But can I say I'm sorry? If I hurt you, You know it hurts me too. Chorus And you get lost inside your tears, And there is nothing we can do, 'Cause I get lost inside my fear That I am nothing without you. 'Cause I am nothing without you. And I am nothing without you. 'Cause I am nothing without you. 'Cause I am nothing without you. Wonderful Tonight by 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 all right?" 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 all right?" 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 and 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." Hard Times by Ray Charles My mother told me 'Fore she passed away Said son when I'm gone Don't forget to pray 'Cause there'll be hard times Lord those hard times Who knows better than I? Well I soon found out Just what she meant When I had to pawn my clothes Just to pay the rent Talkin' 'bout hard times Lord those hard times Who knows better than I? I had a woman Who was always around But when I lost my money She put me down Talkin' 'bout hard times Hard times Yeah, yeah, who knows better than I? Lord, One of these days There'll be no more sorrow When I pass away And no more hard times No more hard times Yeah, yeah, who knows better than I? Tearing Us Apart by Eric Clapton and Greg Phillinganes You know the sun is shining; it's raining in my heart. I don't know what to do since we've been apart. Why don't you tell me, babe, what is going on? You know I love you darling, don't want to be alone. They're tearing us apart, They're breaking up my heart. I knew it from the start: Your friends are tearing us apart. You know I can't go on, feeling this old way. You know my heart is burning, it's burning everyday. You know I love you, baby, no one else will do. Why don't you reconsider, do what I want you to? Chorus Chorus Your friends are tearing us apart, Tearing us apart.
