"I Still Do" (2016)

Alabama Woman Blues lyrics - Eric Clapton

Did you ever go down
On the Mobile and K C line

Did you ever go down
On the Mobile and K C line

I just want to ask you
Did you ever see that gal of mine

I rode the Central
And I hustled the L and N

I rode the Central
And I hustled the L and N

The Alabama women
They live like section men

Don't cry baby
Your papa will be home some day

Don't cry baby
Your papa will be home some day

I've been away baby
But I did not go to stay

Don't the clouds look lonesome
Across the deep blue sea

Don't the clouds look lonesome
Across the deep blue sea

Don't my gal look good
When she's coming after me

Can't Let You Do It lyrics - Eric Clapton

Well you got some high class baby
Steppin' all over me
With your high tone and your blue line
Respectability

You go down on the corner
Havin' yourself a ball
Changed your way of livin'
And I don’t know you at all

I can't let you do it
I can't let you do it to me
I know you're gonna do it
But I can't let you do it to me

If the sun don't shine no more
And the blue sky don't appear
The rainfall don't fall no more
I really don't think you'd care
You got so wrapped up, baby
In everything you do
Been putting on the dog, you know
And I mean you

I can't let you do it
I can't let you do it to me
I know you're gonna do it
But I can't let you do it to me

If you don't shut down miss banquet
If you don't shut down real soon
Gonna find yourself out on the street
Looking for another room
You've seen me on the corner
Having myself a ball
Gonna change my way of living
And you won't know me at all

I can't let you do it
I can't let you do it to me
I know you're gonna do it
But I can't let you do it to me

I Will Be There lyrics - Eric Clapton

When times are hard
And friends are few
And you need someone
To help you through
Just call my name
And I'll come running to your side
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid

I will be there
(When you are lost, lost in the night
Nowhere to turn)
I will be there
(Don't be afraid, don't be afraid)

When morning comes
And nothing's changed
And the world outside
Plays the same old game
Just call on me
And I will ease your lonely heart
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid

I will be there
(When you are lost, lost in the night
Nowhere to turn)
I will be there
(Don't be afraid, don't be afraid)
I will be there
(When everyone that you believed
Still lets you down)
I will be there
(Don't be afraid, don't be afraid)

I will be there, don't be afraid
I will be there, don't be afraid
When morning comes
And nothing's changed
And the world outside
Plays the same old game
When everyone still lets you down
I will be there
When times are hard
And friends are few
And you need someone to help you through
I will be there, don't be afraid
I will be there, don't be afraid
I will be there

Spiral lyrics - Eric Clapton

You don't know how much this means
To have this music in me
I just keep playing these blues
Hoping that I don't lose

I just keep playing my song
Hoping that I get along
You don't know how much it means
To have this music in me

In the morning
In the daytime
In the evening
In the nighttime too
I gotta have it
I gotta have this blues
I gotta have it

You don't know how much it means
To have this music in me
I just keep playing my song
Hoping that I get along

In the morning
In the daytime
In the night
In the night time too
In the morning
In the daytime
In the evening
In the midnight hours

I gotta have it
I gotta have
I gotta have this blues
I gotta have it
I gotta have

Catch The Blues lyrics - Eric Clapton

I've been willing to bet
You ain't got nothin' to lose
I ain't figured out yet
How you've been walking in my shoes
Somebody tell me how to talk to you

Ain't it funny
You might even
Catch the blues

I've been willing to bet
You ain't got nothing to say
I ain't figured out yet
How i've been getting in your way
Somebody tell me how to play for you

Ain't it funny
You might even
Catch the blues

Living in a world of pain
I've been living in a world of pain
Without you making the difference
Oh i've been going insane
But i can't go on without calling out your name

I've been willing to bet
You ain't got nothing to show
I ain't figure out yet
Where you've been pointed me to go
Somebody tell me how to get to you

Ain't it funny
You might even
Catch the blues

Living in a world of pain
I've been living in a world of pain
Without you making the difference
Oh i've been going insane
But i can't go on without calling out your name

Cypress Grove lyrics - Eric Clapton

I would rather to be buried
In some cypress grove
I would rather to be buried
In some cypress grove
Than to have a contrary woman
Lord, I never can control

And when yo' knee bones
Go to achin'
An your body gettin' cold
When yo' knee bones
Go to achin'
And yo' body gettin' cold
You know, you jes' gettin' ready
Honey, for some cypress grove

Then I would rather be buried
Six feet in the clay
Then I would rather to be buried
Six feet in the clay
Then to be way up here
In New York City
Honey, treated this't-a-way

An I will drink muddy water
I'll sleep in a hollow log
I will drink muddy water
Sleep in a hollow log
Befo' I stay up here
Honey, treated like a dog

Yes, I'm goin' away
Honey, don't you want to go?
Yes, I'm goin' away
Honey, don't you wants to go?
I'm scared to go back down south
Them people goin' kill me, sho'

I'm gonna sing this song
An I ain't goin' to sing no mo'
I'm goin' to sing this song, an I
I ain't goin' to sing no mo'
Because my time has done got precious
Baby, Lord, just got
I've got to go, yeah

Little Man, You've Had A Busy Day lyrics - Eric Clapton

I know why you're cryin', I know why you're blue
Someone took your kiddy-car away
Time to go to sleep now
Little man, you've had a busy day

Someone took your marbles, tell you what I'll do
Dad'll get you new ones right away
Time to go to sleep now
Little man, you've had a busy day

Put away your soldiers, the battle has been won
Enemy is out of sight
Come along there soldier, and put away your gun
The war is over for tonight

Time to stop your schemin', time your day was through
Listen to the jukebox softly play
It's time to go to sleep now
Little man, you've had a busy day

Time to stop your schemin', time your day was through
Listen to the jukebox softly say
It's time to go to sleep now
Little man, you've had a busy day
It's time to go to sleep now
Little man, you've had a busy day

Stones In My Passway lyrics - Eric Clapton

I got stones in my passway, and my road seem dark as night
I got stones in my passway, and my road seem dark as night
I got pain in my heart, they have taken my appetite

I have a bird to whistle, and I have a bird to sing
I have a bird to whistle, and I have a bird to sing
I got a woman that I'm lovin', boy, but she don't mean a thing

My enemies have betrayed me, have overtaken poor Bob at last
My enemies have betrayed me, have overtaken poor Bob at last
And there's one thing certainly, they have stones all in my pass

Now you tryin' to take my life, and all my lovin' too
You laid a passway for me, now what are you trying to do?
And I'm cryin' please, please let us be friends
And when you hear me howlin' in my passway, rider, please open your door and let me in

I got three lane's to truck home, boys, please don't block my road
I got three lane's to truck home, boys, please don't block my road
I've been feelin' ashamed 'bout my rider, babe, I'm booked and I got to go

I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine lyrics - Eric Clapton

I dreamed I saw St. Augustine
Alive as you or me
Tearing through these quarters
In the utmost misery
With a blanket underneath his arm
And a coat of solid gold
Searching for the very souls
Already have been sold

"Arise, arise," he cried so loud
In a voice without restraint
"Come out, ye gifted kings and queens
And hear my sad complaint
No martyr is among you now
Whom you can call your own
Go on your way accordingly
But know you're not alone"

I dreamed I saw St. Augustine
Alive with fiery breath
And I dreamed I was amongst the ones
That put him out to death
Oh, I awoke in anger
So alone and terrified
I put my fingers against the glass
And bowed my head and cried

Somebody's Knockin' lyrics - Eric Clapton

Somebody's knocking
Somebody's knocking at my door
Somebody's knocking
Somebody's knocking on my door
Well, it must be my woman
Coming 'round here for more

Somebody whispers
Somebody whispers in my ear
Somebody whispers
Somebody whispers in my ear
It must be my woman
I can feel her when she's near

O-o-o-o, she can get right down
O-o-o-o, she can get right down
Oh, it must be my woman
Make me love when I am down

I'll Be Seeing You lyrics - Eric Clapton

I'll be seeing you
In all the old familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces
All day and through

In that small cafe
The park across the way
The children's carousel
The chestnut trees, the wishing well

I'll be seeing you
In every lovely summer's day
In everything that's bright and gay
I'll always think of you that way

I'll find you in the morning sun
And when the night is new
I'll be looking at the moon
But I'll be seeing you

In that small cafe
The park across the way
The children's carousel
The chestnut trees, the wishing well

I'll be seeing you
In every lovely summer's day
In everything that's bright and gay
I'll always think of you that way

I'll find you in the morning sun
And when the night is new
I'll be looking at the moon
But I'll be seeing you

"The Breeze: An Appreciation Of JJ Cale" (2014)



(performed by ERIC CLAPTON & FRIENDS)

Call Me The Breeze lyrics - Eric Clapton

They call me the breeze, I keep blowing down the road
They call me the breeze, I keep blowing down the road
I ain't got me nobody, I ain't carrying me no load

Ain't no change in the weather, ain't no change in me
Ain't no change in the weather, ain't no change in me
I ain't hidin' from nobody, ain't nobody hidin' from me

I got that green light, babe, I got to keep moving on
I got that green light, babe, I got to keep moving on
I might go out to California, might go down to Georgia, might stay home

Rock And Roll Records lyrics - Eric Clapton (with Tom Petty)

I make rock 'n' roll records
I sell 'em for a dime
I make my living and feed my children
All in good time
The blues they go for a quarter
Guaranteed to satisfy
It's a real funky deal
Don't let it pass you by
If your evening sun don't shine, my friend
Tell you what I'm gonna do I'm gonna hammer out this rhythm
Till I get right next to you

Someday lyrics - Eric Clapton (with Mark Knopfler)

Someday she'll be here, that's a fact
Someday, she'll be coming right back
Maybe I'm dreaming
I hope it's not so, but
Someday she's comin' back I know
You know I'm ready, to see her again
When that someday will never end

When she left with no goodbye
I was stuck with those lonely nights
You know what I mean, it's always the same
Ain't no medicine for that kind of pain
Someday comes and goes away
Bringing me a better day

Ain't no pity, ain't no shame
I hope that someday will come again
Maybe I'm dreaming
I hope it's not so
Somedays' comin', it's comin' I know
Maybe I'm dreaming
I hope it's not so
Somedays' comin', it's comin' I know

Lies lyrics - Eric Clapton (with John Mayer)

You told me this, you told me that
You try to tell me, tell me where it's at
You said you loved me, I can see through that
Lies, lies, lies

You left me hangin', hangin' from a limb
You said you loved me, then you left with him
Lord, you did it to me, I see it in your eyes
Lies, lies, lies

Tell me baby, why you take my time
You get a thrill off playing with my mind
Lord, you did it to me, I see it in your eyes
Lies, lies, lies

Sensitive Kind lyrics - Eric Clapton (performed by Don White)

Don't take her for granted
She has a hard time
Don't misunderstand her
Or play with her mind
Treat her so gently
It will pay you in time
You've got to know
She's the sensitive kind
Tell her you love her
Each and every night
You will discover
She will treat you right
If you believe
I know you will find
There ain't nothing like
The sensitive kind
She gets so lonely
Waiting for you
You are the only
Thing to help her through
Don't take her for granted
She has a hard time
You've got to know
She's the sensitive kind

Cajun Moon lyrics - Eric Clapton

Cajun moon, where does your power lie
As you move across the southern sky
You took my babe way too soon
What have you done, Cajun moon
Someday babe, when you want your man
And you find him gone, just like the wind
Don't trouble your mind whatever you do
'Cause Cajun moon took him from you
When daylight fades, the night comes on
You can hear the silence of this song
Don't trouble your mind whatever you do
'Cause he got me like he got you

Magnolia lyrics - Eric Clapton (performed by John Mayer)

Whippoorwill's singing
Soft summer breeze
Makes me think of my baby
I left down in New Orleans
I left down in New Orleans
Magnolia, you sweet thing
You're driving me mad
Got to get back to you, babe
You're the best I ever had
You're the best I ever had
You whisper "Good morning"
So gently in my ear
I'm coming home to you, babe
I'll soon be there
I'll soon be there

I Got The Same Old Blues lyrics - Eric Clapton (with Tom Petty)

Have you heard that rumour that's going around
You got it made, way across town
It's the same old story, tell me where does it end
Yes, I heard the news, it's the same old blues again
When I wrote you a letter, you must have read it wrong
I stood at your doorway, but you was gone
I took a lot of courage and let the telephone ring
It's the same old blues, same old blues again
When you give me the business, you know I get a mind
'Cause I've got a lot of patience and I've got a lot of time
It's the same old story, tell me where does it end
It's the same old blues, same old blues again
I'm gonna find me a mountain, I'm gonna hide out
I ain't talking to you and I ain't coming out
Yeah, I heard that rumour, tell me where does it end
It's the same old blues, same old blues again

Songbird lyrics - Eric Clapton (with Willie Nelson)

For you, there'll be no more crying,
For you, the sun will be shining,
And I feel that when I'm with you,
It's alright, I know it's right

To you, I'll give the world
To you, I'll never be cold
'Cause I feel that when I'm with you,
It's alright, I know it's right.

And the songbirds are singing,
Like they know the score,
And I love you, I love you, I love you,
Like never before.

And I wish you all the love in the world,
But most of all, I wish it from myself.
And the songbirds keep singing,
Like they know the score,
And I love you, I love you, I love you,
Like never before, like never before.

Since You Said Goodbye lyrics - Eric Clapton

Rain keeps fallin' on my head
Sun keeps burnin' out my eyes
Lord the moon he knows I'm blue
And it's all because of you

Ever since you said goodbye
Black cloud hangin' over me
I can't seem to do it right
Lord the wind it never blows
The river never flows

Ever since you said goodbye
Sunny days have come and gone
Heaven knows I'm here cryin'
Lord the moon he knows I'm blue
And it's all because of you
Ever since you said goodbye

I'll Be There (If You Ever Want Me) lyrics - Eric Clapton (with Don White)

There ain't no chains strong enough to hold me
Ain't no breeze big enough to slow me
Never have seen a river that's too wide
There ain't no jail tight enough to lock me
Ain't no man big enough to stop me
I'll be there if you ever want me by your side
There ain't no rope stout enough to bind me
Look for me, honey, you will find me
Any old time, get ready with your charm
I'll be there ready and a-waiting
There won't be any hesitating
I'll be there if you ever want me in your arms
Love me, if you're ever going to love me
Never have seen a road too rough to ride
There ain't no chain strong enough to hold me
Ain't no breeze big enough to slow me
I'll be there if you ever want me by your side

The Old Man And Me lyrics - Eric Clapton (performed by Tom Petty)

The old man he catches the fish in the morning
He rides the river every day
I sit on the bank and I holler when he passes
"Hey, old man, are they biting today"
I wake up in the morning, thinking 'bout my troubles
I go down to the water and they pass away
And when the old man comes a-floating down the river
"Hey, old man, are they biting today"
Now here we've got a thing that keeps on rolling
It ain't heavy, don't take it that way
The old man and me, we got a good thing going
He gets his fish and I sit all day
He gets his fish and I sit all day

Train To Nowhere lyrics - Eric Clapton (with Mark Knopfler, Don White)

You can catch it if you want to ride
Don't you worry if it pass you by
You can catch it if you want to ride
Don't you worry if it pass you by

Lord you know the reason why
On this train till I die
Train I ride goes to God knows where
I don't know and I don't care

Train I ride goes to God knows where
I don't know and I don't care
If you ain't got money don't despair
'Cause you don't have to pay no fare

Please now brother don't you ride this train
Ride the wrong rails, live your life in vain
Please now brother don't you ride this train
Ride the wrong rails, live your life in vain

Starbound lyrics - Eric Clapton (performed by Willie Nelson)

When you and I are ready, no longer earthly-bound
We'll travel through the crystal night, starbound
Heaven holds a mystery, wrapped inside a sound
Through the eyes of time, starbound, you and I
A floating star is what we are
Suspended in space
Outward-bound it's the only home we've found
To save the human race
Speed is now their captain, kings that lost their crown
Motion is our master, starbound
Starbound
Starbound

Don't Wait lyrics - Eric Clapton (with John Mayer)

Don't wait, don't wait
Don't wait for the good times to come
We got 'em right here, we're on the run
Don't wait, don't wait
Going back, going back
Going way back, back in time
Another place, another mind
Going back, going back
Walk on, walk on
Walk on straight ahead
Don't look around, don't turn your head
Walk on, walk on
Fly away, fly away
Fly away away with me
I never been so flying free
Fly away, fly away
Bye bye, bye bye
Please don't ever say
You're leaving me, you're going away
Bye bye, bye bye

Crying Eyes lyrics - Eric Clapton (with Christine Lakeland)

It ain't easy drying these crying eyes of mine
It ain't easy drying these crying eyes of mine
I get so lonely, lonely, lonely

It ain't easy drying these crying eyes of mine
What can you do when those tears make you blind
What can you do when those tears make you blind
I get so lonely, lonely, lonely

What can you do with these crying eyes of mine

"Old Sock" (2013)

Further On Down The Road lyrics - Eric Clapton (feat. Taj Mahal)

Further on down the road baby, you will accompany me.
Further on down the road baby, you will accompany me.

When I think back, your love was like the sun
And I don't remember no dark days, remember the warm warm fun.

Further on down the road baby, you will accompany me.
Fools in life, mmmm woman than a happy fool I'd rather be.

Oh baby I'll be glad to learn from you,
Darlin' I know you will be glad to learn from me.
And if we get down and things get sad,
We can cheer up eachother, and grin cuz things just ain't that bad.
If we fools in life, a happy fool I would rather be.

Day by day, just one step, one step at a time.
Cuz woman you have given me so much,
Just to ease this stubborn little achin' heart of mine.

I don't care where they came from,
and I don't care what they might say,
Woman you've been lovin' in my corner, all, all the way.
Day by day, that's the magical kind cuz it's flowin' all of the time.

Further on down the road, baby,
you will accompany me
Further on down the road, baby,
you will accompany me

When I look back,
your love was like the sun,
And I don't remember any cold days,
I just remember the warm warm fun.

Further on down the road, baby,
you will accompany me.

Ohhhh Babe, ohhhh babe, ohhhh darling
ohhhh babe, ohhhh darling, ohhhh babe,
ohhhh babe, ohhhh darling, ohhhh babe,
ohhhh babe, ohhhh babe, ohhhh darling...

Angel lyrics - Eric Clapton (feat. JJ Cale)

All up and down the boulevard
All the boys are looking hot
Tryina score, tryina make a pass
Anything at all, don't have to last

Angel, she's afraid now
She don't know about the street guys
She don't know how to hurt you deep
Let her play for keeps

Cut you like a knife, angel
When you survive
Cut you like a knife, angel
Street life

Blue hard hands and car trucks
Hustlers, lovers, come out the dark
They all know, and it's a fact
Angel, you better stand back
Sun cools down, the street come to life
Here come the boys with all the drive
Anyone can do this
They don't really care,

They cut you like a knife, angel
When you survie
Cut you like a knife, angel
Street life

All up and down the boulevard
All the boys are looking hot
Tryina score, tryina make a pass
Anything at all, don't have to last

Cut you like a knife, angel
When you survive
Cut you like a knife, angel
Street life
Cut you like a knife, angel
When you survive
Cut you like a knife, angel
Street life.

The Folks Who Live On The Hill lyrics - Eric Clapton

Someday we'll build a home on a hilltop high
You and I, shiny and new
Cottage that two can fill
And we'll be pleased to be called
The folks who live on the hill

Someday we may be adding a wing or two
A thing or two
We will make changes as any family will
But we will always be called
The folks who live on the hill

Our veranda will command a view of meadows green
The sort of view that seems to want to be seen
And when our kids grow up and leave us
We'll sit and look at that same old view
Just we two, Darby and Joan
Who used to be Jack and Jill
The folks who like to be called
What they have always been called
The folks who live on the hill
The folks who live on the hill
The folks who live on the hill
The folks who live on the hill.

Gotta Get Over lyrics - Eric Clapton (feat. Chaka Khan)

Can you feel a wind blowing, got me talking to myself
One more day, one more truth, got to find out where
Feel the blow of the river taking me there
Good Lord only get you so far, then you got to help yourself
I don’t need no reason, reason to hang my head

Cause I gotta get over
Get on over to the good side
Lord I gotta get over
Get over, you get a lil' closer
I gotta get over
Getting closer to the good side
Gotta get over
Getting over, over

I've been breaking like the waves upon the sand
You know I need some fortitude, gonna keep it close at hand
And I gotta shake it if I’m gonna break it on down the line
Ain't nobody can help me if I stay helpless all the time

I gotta get over
Get on over to the good side
Gotta get over
Help me get a little closer
I gotta get over
Getting closer to the good side
Lord I gotta get over,
Getting over, over.


Till Your Well Runs Dry lyrics - Eric Clapton

You said you loved me and then you left
Broke every promise, you won every bed
You never miss your water till your well runs dry!

[Chorus:]
Tell me, tell me what you gonna do
When your, when your well runs dry
What you gonna do, when your, when your well runs dry?
What you gonna do when your well runs dry
I'd like to know
What you gonna do when your well runs dry?

Listen to me, darling
You cheat and you lie
How you come in running
Running, wanting second try
You never miss your water
Till your well runs dry!

[Chorus:]
Tell me, tell me what you gonna do
When your, when your well runs dry
What you gonna do, when your, when your well runs dry?
What you gonna do when your well runs dry
I'd like to know
What you gonna do when your well runs dry?

Sat down and sighed
And I heard you're packing
But you said nothing
I watched you pass me by.
I know you gonna miss me
You're gonna be so blue!

[Chorus:]
Tell me, tell me what you gonna do
When your, when your well runs dry
What you gonna do, when your (feeling good?)
When your well runs dry?
What you gonna do when your well runs dry
What you gonna do, when your (feeling good?)
When your well runs dry?
What you gonna do when your well runs dry
I'd like to know
What you gonna do when your well runs dry?

You never miss you water till your well runs dry!

[Chorus:]
Tell me, tell me what you gonna do
When your, when your well runs dry
What you gonna do, when your, when your well runs dry?
What you gonna do when your well runs dry
I'd like to know
What you gonna do when your well runs dry?
What you gonna do when your well runs dry?

All Of Me lyrics - Eric Clapton (feat. Paul McCartney)

All of me, why not take all of me?
Can't you see I'm no good without you?
Take my lips, I wanna lose them
Take my arms, I never use them

Your goodbyes left me with eyes that cry
How can I go on without you?
You took the part that once was my heart
So why not take all of me?

Your goodbyes left me with eyes that cry
How can I go on without you?
You took the part that once was my heart
So why not take all of me?

Your goodbyes left me with eyes that cry
How can I go on without you?
You took the part that once was my heart
So why not take all of me?

Born To Lose lyrics - Eric Clapton

Born to lose, I've lived my life in vain
Every dream has only brought me pain
All my life I've always been so blue
Born to lose, and now I'm losing you

Born to lose, it seems so hard to bear
How I long to always have you near
You've grown tired and now you say we're through
Born to lose, and now I'm losing you

Born to lose, my every hope is gone
It's so hard to face each empty dawn
You were all the happiness I knew
Born to lose, and now I'm losing you
Born to lose, and now I'm losing you.

Still Got The Blues lyrics - Eric Clapton (feat. Steve Winwood)

It used to be so easy to give my heart away
I found out the hard way
There's a price I have to pay
I found in that love's no friend of mine
I should have known better time after time

It was so long, so long ago
But I've still got the blues for you

It used to be so easy to fall in love again
I found out the hard way
It's a road that leads to pain
I found in that love was more than just a game
I was playin' to win
But losin' just the same

It was so long, so long ago
But I've still got the blues for you

So many years since I've seen your face
Here in my heart there's an empty space
Where you used to be

Well, it was so long, so long ago
But I've still got the blues for you

Though the days come and go
There is one thing I know
I've still got the blues for you.

Goodnight Irene lyrics - Eric Clapton

Last Saturday night I got married
Me and my wife settled down
Now me and my wife are parted
Gonna take a little stroll downtown

Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene
I´ll see you in my dreams

Stop ramblin´, stop your gamblin´
Stop stayin´out late at night
Come home to your wife and your family
And sit by the fire so bright
Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene
I´ll see you in my dreams

I love Irene, God knows I do
Love her ´til the rivers run dry
If irene should ever turn her back on me
Gonna take morphine and die

Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene
I´ll see you in my dreams
Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene
I´ll see you in my dreams
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene
I'll see you in my dreams

Your One And Only Man lyrics - Eric Clapton

Hey, hey, hey
If I can only make you see
That you were only meant for me
Our love will be free
And I'll be your destiny
Your destiny, your destiny

If I can make you understand
Treat me right and love me
Then I will be your man
Your one and only man

These are the words that I have to say
Live by them each and every day
And as the time pass I know our love will last
Our love will last, our love will last

Take me blue and understand them
Live by them and love me
Then I will be your man
Your one and only man

These are the words that I have to say
Just live by them each and every day
And as the time pass I know our love will last
Our love will last, our love will last

Take me blue and understand
Live by them and love me
Honey I will be your man
Your one and only man
Your sweet lovin' man
I will be your man

(Your one and only man)
(Your one and only man)
(Your one and only man)
(I will be your man).

Every Little Thing lyrics - Eric Clapton

Well it's a cloud in morning
But I got the sun in my life
I wanna feel what forever feels like
With you by my side.

People trying to sell your freedom
But they never been held by your love

[Chorus:]
Every little thing, every little thing
Your love is all I see.
Every little thing, every little thing
You make me feel complete.
All the little things, all the little things
Can wait until tomorrow,
Every little thing, every little thing
Your love is all I need.

And I get lost in my instant time.
And I go somewhere else instead
When all you wanna do is love me
You can wait so patiently.
Pull me closer just by looking
And I'll fall in love all over again.

[Chorus:]
Every little thing, every little thing
Love is all I see
Every little thing, every little thing
You make me feel complete
All the little things, all the little things
They can wait until tomorrow,
Every little thing, every little thing
Your love is all I need.

Give me a piece of your heart
Give me a piece of your heart
Give me a piece of your heart
I'll give you a piece of my heart.

[Chorus:]
Every little thing, every little thing
Your love is all I see
Every little thing, every little thing
You can make me feel complete
All the little things, all the little things
They can wait until tomorrow,
Every little thing, every little thing
I wanna hear my children sing.

Every little thing you do is beautiful
Open your heart and let the love come in
Every little thing you do is beautiful
Beautiful, so beautiful
Open your heart and let the love come in
It sound no..

Every little thing you do is beautiful
Open your heart and let the love come in
Every little thing you do is beautiful
Beautiful, beautiful
Every little thing you do is beautiful
Open your heart and let your love come in
Every little thing you do is beautiful
Beautiful so beautiful
Every little thing you do is beautiful
Open your heart and let your love come in.

Our Love Is Here To Stay lyrics - Eric Clapton

It's very clear
Our love is here to stay
Not for a year
But ever and a day

The radio and the telephone
And the movies that we know
May just be passing fancies,
And in time may go

But, oh my dear,
Our love is here to stay
Together we're
Going a long, long way

In time the Rockies may crumble,
Gibraltar may tumble,
They're only made of clay,
But our love is here to stay

Oh my dear,
Our love is here to stay
Together we're
Going a long, long way

In time the Rockies may crumble,
Gibraltar may tumble,
They're only made of clay,
But our love is here to stay
Our love is here to stay.

"Clapton" (2010)

Rocking Chair lyrics - Eric Clapton

Old rockin' chair's got me, my cane by my side
Fetch me that gin, son, 'fore I tan your hide
Can't get from this cabin, goin' nowhere
Just set me here grabbin' at the flies round this rockin' chair

My dear old aunt Harriet, in Heaven she be
Send me sweet chariot, for the end of the trouble I see
Old rockin' chair gets it, Judgement Day is here
Chained to my rockin' chair

Old rockin' chair's got me, son, (Rocking chair got you, father)
My cane by my side, (Yes, your cane by your side)
Now fetch me a little gin, son (Ain't got no gin, father)
What? 'fore I tan your hide, now, (You're gonna tan my hide)

You know, I can't get from this old cabin (What cabin? joking)
I ain't goin' nowhere (Why ain't you goin' nowhere?)
Just sittin' me here grabbin' (Grabbin')
At the flies round this old rockin' chair (Rockin' chair)

Now you remember dear old aunt Harriet, (Aunt Harriet)
How long in Heaven she be? (She's up in Heaven)
Send me down, send me down sweet (Sweet chariot) chariot
End of this trouble I see (I see, Daddy)

Old rockin' chair gets it, son (Rocking chair get it, father)
Judgement Day is here, too (Your Judgement Day is here)
Chained to my rockin', old rockin' chair

River Runs Deep lyrics - Eric Clapton

Well, the river runs deep and the water is cold as ice
The river runs deep and the water is cold as ice
I go down there every chance I get
It's where my baby she met her death
And the river runs deep and the water's cold as ice

Ain't no woman gonna make a fool out of me
Ain't no woman gonna make a fool out of me
Running 'round, that's what they said
She's at the bottom of the river dead
And the river runs deep and the water's cold as ice

No cheating woman gonna get a good man down
No cheating woman gonna get a good man down
Running 'round like a silly fool
You're gonna end up at the bottom of the pool
And the river runs deep and the water's cold as ice

Judgement Day lyrics - Eric Clapton

What you gonna do on judgement day
The time's run out now, you can't stay
Screaming and crying, you got to go
Turn and say, "Peter won't you open the door?"

Yes, I'm coming
(Yes, I'm coming)
Yes, I'm coming
(Yes, I'm coming)
Yes, I'm coming
Just like my time alone

When I die you can't bury me
... women at my head and feet
You fold my arms across my chest
You tell me friends that I'm gone to rest

Yes, I'm coming
(Yes, I'm coming)
Yes, I'm coming
(Yes, I'm coming)
Yes, I'm coming
Just like my time alone

When I'm dead right there in my grave
You're gonna be sorry
That you treat me like a slave
There ain't no one can take my place
You're gonna cry your blues away

Yes, I'm coming
Yes, I'm coming
Yes, I'm coming
Just like my time alone

How Deep Is The Ocean lyrics - Eric Clapton

How can I tell you what is in my heart?
How can I measure each and every part?
How can I tell you how much I love you?
How can I measure just how much I do?

How much do I love you?
I'll tell you no lie
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?

How many times a day do I think of you?
How many roses are sprinkled with dew?

How far would I travel
To be where you are?
How far is the journey
From here to a star?

And if I ever lost you
How much would I cry?
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?

My Very Good Friend The Milkman lyrics - Eric Clapton

My very good friend the milkman says
That I've been losing to much sleep
He doesn't like the hours I keep
And he suggests that you should marry me

My very good friend the mailman says
That it would make his burden less
If we both had the same address
And he suggests that you should marry me.

Then there's a very friendly fellow who prints
All the latest real estate news
And every day he sends me blueprints
Of cottages with country views

My very good friends the neighbours say
That they've been watching little things I do
And they perceive that I love you
So I suggest that you should marry me.

Can't Hold Out Much Longer lyrics - Eric Clapton

You know I'm just crazy about you baby,
Wonder, do you ever think of me.
You know I'm crazy about you baby,
But you don't care nothing in the world for me.

Well I can't sleep at night
I just cats nap through the day
I can't hold out much longer
Lord, living this way.

You know I'm just crazy about you baby,
Wonder, do you ever think of me.
You know I'm in love with you darling,
But you don't care nothing in the world for me.

Now there ain't but the one thing momma
That makes your daddy drink.
When you say that you don't love me,
Well lord I begin to think.

You know I'm just crazy about you baby,
Wonder, do you ever think of me.
You know I'm wild about you honey,
But you don't care nothing in the world for me.

That's No Way To Get Along lyrics - Eric Clapton

I'm goin' home, friends, sit down and tell my, my mama
Friends, sit down and tell my mama
I'm goin' home, sit down and tell my mama
I'm goin' home, sit down and tell my mama
That that's no way to get along

These low-down women, mama, they treated your, ahw, poor son wrong
Mama, treated me wrong
These low-down women, mama, treated your poor son wrong
These low-down women, mama, treated your poor son wrong
And that's no way for him to get along

They treated me like my poor heart was made of a rock or stone
Mama, made of a rock or stone
Treated me like my poor heart was made of a rock or stone
Treated me like my poor heart was made of a rock or stone
And that's no way for me to get along

You know, that was enough, mama, to make your son wished he's dead and gone
Mama, wished I's dead and gone
That is enough to make your son, mama, wished he's dead and gone
That is enough to make your son, mama, wished he's dead and gone
'Cause that's no way for him to get along

I stood on the roadside, I cried alone, all by myself
I cried alone by myself
I stood on the roadside and cried alone by myself
I stood on the roadside and cried alone by myself
Cryin', "That's no way for me to get along"

I's wantin' some train to come along and take me away from here
Friends, take me away from here
Some train to come along and take me away from here
Some train to come along and take me away from here
And that's no way for me to get along
