Eric Clapton's history

Yo Folks! Today's the history about Eric Clapton(Eric Patrick Clapton). Eric Clapton is a very famous blues-rock guitarist, singer, songwriter and composer . He isbest known for his lyric guitar style and use of blues techniques to enhance his rock music performances. In 1993 he won six Grammy Awards, including album of the year for Unplugged and song and record of the year for “Tears In Heaven”, which he wrote on the occasion of the death of his four-year-old son.""Tears in Heaven" is a ballad written by Eric Clapton and Will Jennings about the pain Clapton felt following the 1991 death of his four-year-old son, Conor, who fell from a 53rd-story window in his mother's friend's New York City condominium. By all accounts, the death was simply a tragic accident, and Clapton was distraught for months afterwards.This song is one of Clapton's most successful, reaching #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in the U.S.

There are the lyrics
:'(
Would you know my nameIf I saw you in heaven?Would it be the sameIf I saw you in heaven?
I must be strongAnd carry on,'Cause I know I don't belongHere in heaven.
Would you hold my handIf I saw you in heaven?Would you help me standIf I saw you in heaven?
I'll find my wayThrough night and day,'Cause I know I just can't stayHere 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 moreTears in heaven.
Would you know my nameIf I saw you in heaven?Would it be the sameIf I saw you in heaven?
I must be strongAnd carry on,'Cause I know I don't belongHere in heaven.
