lyrics Eric Clapton

Chorus:
Before you accuse me Take a look at yourself Before you accuse me
You say I've been spending my money on other women
You've been taking money from some one else



ERIC CLAPTON
Before You Accuse Me

Chorus:
Before you accuse me Take a look at yourself Before you accuse me
You say I've been spending my money on other women
You've been taking money from some one else

I called your mama 'Bout three or four nights ago (2x)
Well your mother said "Son Don't you call my daughter no more"

(Chorus)

Come back home baby Try my love one more time (2x)
If I don't go on and quit you I'm gonna lose my mind

(Chorus)


Eric Clapton - Blue Eyes Blue


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.



Eric Clapton/Babyface
Change The World
Album: Phenomenon soundtrack


If I could reach the stars, I'd 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

CHORUS
That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You will think my love was really something good
Baby, if I could, change the world

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 will rule, in this kingdom we have made
Till then I'd be a fool, wishin' for the day

CHORUS

Baby, if I could change the world

CHORUS

Baby, if I could change the world...


ERIC CLAPTON
My Father's Eyes

Sailing down behind the sun, waiting for my prince to come.
Praying for the healing rain to restore my soul again.
Just a toerag on the run. How did I get here? What have I done?
When will all my hopes arrive?
How will I know him? When I look in my father's eyes.

Then the light begins to shine and I hear those ancient lullabys.
And as I watched this seedling grow, feel my heart start to overflow
When will I learn the words to say? How do I teach him? What do we play?
If I did, I'd realize
That's when I need him, that's when I need my father's eyes.

Were you really so far away? (4x)

Then the jagged edge appears through the distant clouds of tears.
I'm like a bridge that has washed away; my foundations were made of clay.
As my soul slides down to die. How could I lose him? What did I try?
If I did, I'd recognize
He was here with me; I'd looked into my father's eyes.

As my soul slides down to die. How could I lose him? What did I try?
If I did, I'd recognize
He was here with me; I'd looked into my father's eyes.


TEARS IN HEAVEN (Eric Clapton)

* 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
‘Cos 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
"Cos I know I just can’t stay
Here in heaven

Time can bring it down
Time can bend you kness
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

WONDERFUL TONIGHT (Eric Clapton)

It’s late in the evening she’s wondering
What clothes to wear
She puts on her make up
And brusher 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 every me turns to see
This beautiful lady is walking around with me
And the she asks me do you feel alright
And I say yes I feel wonderful tonight
And in your eyes then the wonder
Of it all is that you just don’t realise
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 are wonderful tonight
Oh my darling
You are wonderful tonight
