Tears in Heaven
Eric Patrick Clapton, 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 you 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
A Dor e a Esperança em Tears In Heaven de Eric Clapton
A canção 'Tears In Heaven' é uma das mais emocionantes e tocantes obras de Eric Clapton. Lançada em 1992, a música reflete o luto e a dor do artista após a trágica morte de seu filho de quatro anos, Conor, que caiu de uma janela de um apartamento no 53º andar em Nova York. A letra é uma meditação sobre a perda, a saudade e a esperança de um reencontro no além.
As perguntas retóricas 'Would you know my name if I saw you in Heaven?' e 'Would it be the same if I saw you in Heaven?' expressam a incerteza e a preocupação de Clapton sobre a continuidade dos laços afetivos após a morte. A repetição dessas questões sugere uma busca por conforto na ideia de que o amor transcende a vida terrena. A música também aborda a necessidade de seguir em frente ('I must be strong and carry on'), apesar do sentimento de não pertencimento (''Cause I know I don't belong here in Heaven').
A parte da letra que diz 'Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees' fala sobre como o tempo pode ser tanto um inimigo quanto um aliado no processo de luto. O tempo pode agravar a dor, mas também pode trazer a cura. A conclusão da música, 'And I know there'll be no more tears in Heaven', oferece um vislumbre de paz e a esperança de que, no além, as tristezas e sofrimentos da vida terrena serão superados. A canção, com sua melodia suave e letras profundas, tornou-se um hino de consolo para muitos que enfrentam a perda de entes queridos.
