Wonderful tonight (Eric Clapton)

Wonderful Tonight

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

White room (Eric Clapton/Cream)

White Room (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.

I’ll 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.

I’ll 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.
She’s just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.

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

Tears In Heaven (Eric Clapton)

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

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 stand, here in Heaven

Time can bring you down, Time can bend you knees

Time can break your heart, have you begging please, begging please

Would you know my name, if I saw you in Heaven

Would it be the same, if I saw you in Heaven

Beyond the door, there’s peace I’m sure

And I know, there’ll be no more tears in Heaven

Sunshine of your love (Eric Clapton)

Sunshine of Your Love (Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker)

It’s getting near dawn,
When lights close their tired eyes.
I’ll soon be with you my love,
To give you my dawn surprise.
I’ll be with you darling soon,
I’ll be with you when the stars start falling.

I’ve been waiting so long
To be where I’m going
In the sunshine of your love.

I’m with you my love,
The light’s shining through on you.
Yes, I’m with you my love,
It’s the morning and just we two.
I’ll stay with you darling now,
I’ll stay with you till my seas are dried up.

Chorus

Second Verse

I’ve been waiting so long
I’ve been waiting so long
I’ve been waiting so long
To be where I’m going
In the sunshine of your love.

She's gone (Eric Clapton)

SHE’S GONE (Eric Clapton and Simon Climie)

In the middle of the night, in the middle of the day,
She can make me feel all right and make it all okay.
She can make me feel so good by looking in my eye.
She can take me to the edge, take me to the sky.

She’s gone, she’s gone, she’s gone.
I’m telling you she’s gone.

She put her hands in my hair, put her kiss on my face.
She puts my heart in my mouth, my soul in its place.
Who could love me like she do? Who could even start to try?
She can love me more than you; I never wonder why.

Chorus

Chorus

Like a shadow in the dark, like a ripple on a stream,
I see her float across my mind like a picture in a dream.

And the more that I know, seems the more that I care.
Give the world and all I own just to know that she’s still there.
Like a shadow in the dark, like a ripple in a stream,
But you’re floating on my mind.
