lost my son July 3rd the pain is unbearable.I cry everyday I just can't believe he's gone. Just 19 days.He was 33 yrs old. He was a good man, agood father and a good son.He never disrespected me. He worked 2 jobs to take care of his 3 girls and 2 kids that wee not his. Honest work. His birthday was to be Sept 8th. Sept 12th he was to marry everythingwas paid for. Instead we had a funeral, I love this song so much.. I miss him so I miss his smile I loved him so much.Sad Mom

Having sucidal thoughts,this song made me realize I am loved and how much pain I would give to others if I did it. Thank you.

Just lost my dad today. Even though he did’nt spend his life with me and left me since I was a child, he will always be my father and nothing can change that fact. RIP dad, I love you no matter what u have done to me and my mom. Rest in peace.

This song really helps me continue on after my daughter was killed. She was my only child and losing her has been the hardest thing to go thru ever. This song is my only wish.... If i see you in heaven

I don't know how Clapton actually played through this whole song without breaking down in tears. It takes a lot of strength

no matter who you are, where you are or what you are doing you will always cry when you hear this song...

This song helps me grieve the loss of my two boys. Both passed in separate car accidents 10 years apart. You never think it could happen again.

One of my nephews went up to heaven 1 week before Christmas! Then 2 months later his father (my brother) also went to join his son in heaven! I miss them both dearly, but what helps me so very much is knowing that they are together again and also that I will see them both and so very many more for eternity when I'm called home. This song is so dear to my heart and just what I need to hear especially at a time like this knowing tomorrow is my brothers1st birthday no longer here on earth. Happy birthday in heaven ❤🎂😇

Me and my real dad used to listen to this all the time in the car, when he past away from liver cancer when I was 8, I would cry whenever this song comes on and I still do. It's just so sad ... R.I.P. Daddy

This song is one of the most beautifully written, heartfelt songs I have ever heard. Never fails to bring a tear to my eye. As Eric wrote this song, there must have been more tears going into the paper than ink. I respect him for creating such a beautiful song in his son's honor.

I love you, Papa. Miss na miss na kita. Until we meet again.

I know my brother and my dad are in heaven. This song helped me get my life back together after my brother was killed in a traffic accident. RIP Big Bro, you're still my hero.

Think of my beautiful daughter I lost Feb. 20th 2016. With tears rolling down my face. I just pray there is a heaven. The thought of having to live this life without her is killing me. I live. and miss you my beautiful baby girl. You are always going to be my Treasure not in just name but in every way of life.

I don't know how but this was only ranked like the 40th saddest song ever. Come on now. It's one of the only songs that has moved me to tears.

I've lost my father in 2008, lost my mom in 2009 and I've lost my husband in 2016....miss them all so much but I still got a job to be done with, raising my beautiful kid's

To all those who lost their loved ones, Stay strong and cherish the memories you had with them.

46 years later the loss of my mother at early age still bring pain and tears to me.and this song brings a lot of memories.

Yes, yes, yes! I've been looking for this song literally for YEARS! Thank you god

To my unborn daughter Penelope who i never got to meet.. Rest in peace my little angel, i know there will be no more tears in heaven..

I have lost most of my Family over the years and this song gives me hope to see them again! 💗 💕 💗

My grandmother died , And was terrible for me cause she was like my second mom, my friend, my advicer, I used to tell her all my jokes. The worst thing is that I couldn't hold her and say : GOOD BYE 😢😥 "I must be strong and carry on"

The second eric clapton starts singing is the second i start sobbing. Miss you Dad 15/5/12

I listen it every day after I have lost my son a month ago....thanks Eric for this amazing song !

So touching. I love this song. It says what our hearts are feeling. To all those who lost someone

I lost my friend in the Orlando shooting, I miss him every day. I can't wait for the day when we are reunited in heaven and we are both young forever and it'll be like old times

I'm not a believer, but I hope there is a Heaven so everyone can see their loved ones again

I am a Christian and truly believe that Eric Clapton will be reunited with his son. Such an incredible tragedy. Such a beautiful tribute to his son. My heart and prayers are with you Eric ❤️

who's with me. 2018? missing my dad right now.

This song is so beautiful, you can feel his loss and the lyrics are pure genius...God bless him for his pain and loss I love this

I can't express my sorrow for your loss. 30 yrs ago yesterday a man became a hero. I feel that the people in Heaven miss us more than we miss them, but they are also so excited to share their lives with us and show us all the great things Heaven has to offer. Look forward to all the excitement and sharing to come. Enjoy your time here and know with overwhelming joy that there will be enternal happiness together in Heaven. Thank you for your contributions to the world. Much love and respect. I'm nobody speacial and to be honest don't know much of your music, but my father told me what this song meant and it was in my heart and soul today and I felt compelled to say something. There is so much more I would love to say, but my mind is telling me to shut up.

i lost my mom,,, she died 29 sept 2017,, may allah gives my mom the best place amin YRA,,, i miss u mom so much

I hope your son found peace Eric, when one of my twins passed away suddenly at 7 weeks I had no idea how to choose music for her funeral then I stumbled across this and after reading about that awful tragedy I felt so connected to this song.. may all of our lost love ones find eternal peace xx

This song was played at my cousins funeral..This year on the 11th of December my cousin Delaina will have been gone for 20 years. My mom got the call on Delaina's birthday,February 3rd 1998 that she was expecting a baby girl. Ever since then even though I never met Delaina I've felt a bond with her. I pray shes my Guardian Angel. I love you Laina. 💔❤️💌

What's with people showing little to no respect to Clapton and others by stating that people who believe in heaven are delusional or that they hope his son is in hell? Many people nowadays have no soul, no compassion, and no respect.

YOUR LOVE IS THE VESSEL THAT WILL CARRY YOUR SOUL TO HEAVEN. Make love apart of every day. Time is short.

The second eric clapton starts singing is the second i start sobbing. Miss you Dad 15/5/12 I listen it every day after I have lost my son a month ago....thanks Eric for this amazing song ! R.I.P Conor Clapton..

My British mum is gone. And you know what? Eric Clapton grew up in the same neighborhood as me mum. My mum knew Eric, as a little boy, playing on the East End of London-Hackney:) :)

I lost my grandson, I raised him for 9 years and I have never felt such pain, I know how Eric felt.....I have lost a husband grandparents my younger brother but losing my grandson just about killed me, I imagine a child would be the same,,,I wish I had this song played

Loved this song it reminds my of my dad every time I here that it bring me to tears.

I lost my boyfriend 2 months ago. I miss him everyday. He was my everything....life is hard without him around.

I miss you mom, it was all very sudden. we celebrated xmas and new year together healthy and happily but after 5 days you left us. It hurts until now, its hard to move on you teach me everything but u did not teach me how to live life without you. Mom, forever and always i love you.

We come here most likely because we have lost someone dear to our heart. This song touches my heart very deeply as I have lost my dear son to cancer. He was 15y, 6 months, 3 days and 2 hours when he died in between my arms and I could not do a thing just keep him as comfortable as possible. Only the unlucky parents know how painful it is to lose a daughter or a son. Part of me died forever and ever... life never the same anymore, it's coming to 5 years now and every day I look to his pictures all around the house, kissing them and thinking you should be here enjoying life... we should swap places me and you, but unfortunately it's not possible... No pain in heaven!

..just lost my 9yr old son last year,december 2018..listening diz song makes me cry, as i miss my son so much..i miss his hug,his kisses and his sweetness..may you rest in peace Clarence..i know you are at the hand of the Father,and no more tears in there..just missing you, until we meet again son..

I ain't Christian , but this songs chord progression and lyrics are imbedded in my heart and I feel something really calming and spiritual about this song. Clapton's a great guy and a really talented dude and he really makes the lyrics so emotional and thoughtful about how it would be to lose someone like Clapton did. Due to this , this song is one of my acoustic favorites. Stay strong people

when i listen to this song, i always realise how much i love my Brothers. Don't worry, they're both alive, but i'm afraid to lose them...i couldn't live without my little Brothers...i wouldn't be strong enough to take all that pain...

My dad played this til my mom passed and at the funeral. I was 9. I can't listen to this song publicly.

Whenever I see Eric play this song on stage, I know that Conor is just watching infront of him, since the audience are covered in the shadows, the darkness is for Eric to see his lovely son. Massive respect for you Eric, your son is rocking in heaven I just know it. And when you two meet its something sweet at the end.

My grandmother is dying. She helped raise me as a mother figure, and though I have had a blessed 34 years with her, part of me selfishly wishes for more time. She has dementia, heart failure, renal failure and is bleeding internally at age 91. I hope God finally relieves her of her pain and struggle and gives her peace. I love you Grandma ........Lost her shortly after this comment. August 10th 2018. She just celebrated her first birthday 11/13 and saw her first snowfall in heaven Thursday.

This song is truly amazing for bringing people who have lost loved ones to share their troubles God bless all the souls that have been sent to heaven in the comments below and above

I lost my husband Jan 9, 2015. This song gets me to tears...

So sorry for the loss of your little boy . My boy passed and I know what your broken heart feels. There are no words for the pain. I miss my son and feel horrible every day.They are now living with Jesus, both are at peace. Thank you for the beautiful song.

I lost my mom Sept 2018, then my dad Sept 2019. I miss them a whole lot, they were my everything. This is the worst pain ever. But I know they're together with God

BYE MY DEAR MOM SOMEDAY I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN, I REALLY HOPE SO ....

One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard . More Than Good 😌

Tears in Heaven : Eric Clapton. Awesome !!! I was crying happy tears! Thankyou Eric. Your a great warm song writer that really puts alot of heart ❤ in your songs.

Who else shed so many tears

I've listened to this song daily since January 5th. I lost my sweet girl Hadley Grace at 22 days, and 13 minutes old. It happened so fast. The pain is unbearable. I'm so angry at god for taking her, but he is a forgiving god. When I pass, and our souls meet on a breeze. It will be tears of happiness, for my heart will be shattered no more. R.I.P. My Sweet Girl I'll love you always, and forever more....

much sympathy to all on here who have lost someone. this song and "my father's eyes" are my tribute to my father. it's been 25 tears and I still pray . God bless

I lost my Grandpa today. I miss him immensely... I'm gonna remember today as one of toughest days of my life... I feel empty.

It’s rare when I can listen to the entire song. The first few chords knock me to my knees and I start sobbing like a baby. 40 years is a long time and the feeling is still raw. Loosing my best friend, my love, my reason for being was just enough to make me give up and let go. This song gives me hope, I can feel his pain.

An all time classic by the wonderful Eric Clapton, a real national treasure.

this song I dedicate to alot of people but this goes out to truly my three favorite people in the world my best friends sister and her girlfriend who were killed in the Orlando shooting and my best friend who overdosed in February also just wanted to my best friend who overdosed also was battling aids

This song always gets me to cry and remember all my loved ones who aren't there anymore especially since I don't believe in a heaven

Listening to this song one year after I lost my beloved aunt to cancer. I truly miss her and cry every time I think of her. ❤️🌹

I know how painfully it is to loose a child. My daughter was born with serous health problems. My Angel lived for 3and a half months. I spent many a hr begging please don't take her away from me. She's at peace now

I'm going to visit my late husband's grave for the first time today who was killed the very same day our son was brought into this world. I have been listening to this non stop all morning.

4 years ago my nephew was stillborn. So every year on this day this is the only song I listen to. RIP Solomon.

This goes to my dog Annie, my beloved dog Annie, who was accidentally killed when I was walking my dog without a leash and was accidentally hurt by a garbage truck since she was a beloved and sweet dog I’ve ever had in my life. Please let her be playing with my other dogs Mimi and Misty since all our dogs were wonderful and brave. Rest In Peace Annie. You shall be missed in the Pattison Family. Rest In Peace Annie. We, including my family, will miss you our beloved

I like this song but everytime I hear it I think of a few funerals I've been to and I imagine the intense pain of losing a child in the way Clapton did, seriously when I was a kid I asked my dad about the song, maybe 1997-98 or so and I kept thinking that his son should be alive.

i lost my daughter she was 20 yrs old, to hodgkins lymphomia cancer..on february 28,2013...rip my darling angel

Wow, just went to a friends celebration of life and this was played first. Talk about emotions when you here this. This truly is one of the deepest songs of expression and sorrow that I’ve ever heard. You know Clapton’s heart was shattered when he wrote this. I’ll never listen to this the same way again. It’s a heartbreaker. God Bless you Conner and Eric.

There's no pain like the pain of the loss of a child, no matter the age. It is an open wound that never heals.

Love and miss you, dad. I'll see you again some day.

First time I heard this song, was a tribute to people killed in 9/11, So, I'll always remember, respect to this channel, rip lovelies.

I sympathize with all of you who have lost their loved ones. As a songwriter, I wish to be analytical just for a bit. The lyrics, the sentiment, and the musical structure of this song make it just about the most perfect song ever written. As a songwriter, I notice the chord changes, the melody, the breaks, the bridge, the build from one to the next. So moving and profound. One of the greatest songs ever composed.

We have all lost a loved one but to loose a Son so young is not only a tragedy but a kick in the balls.

so much clearly emtion in this beautiful song...... R.I.P Conor , as a sweet angel boy in heaven.....

A year ago, a friend of mine suicided. On my 14th birthday he bought me an Eric Clapton CD. Still hard..

My beloved pet, my cat Mindo died 25.12.2017. Since then I´ve happened to hear this song 3 times, when driving my car. It makes me peaceful. One of my favourite songs also before. Thank you for putting also the lyrics here.

I will always remember you and miss you brother. I can't believe that its been 14 yrs since you died of cancer. As you know I named my first born son after you. We talk about you a lot. Charlie loved you even though he never new you. Rip Charlie we love you.

This song makes me want to cry.. my Grandma told me she wants this song played at her funeral.

My husband died due to a mistake by a hospital. The hospital gave him an opiate to sedate him and his heart stopped less than half an hour after they put the medication in his IV. They were able to resuscitate him, but the third time his heart stopped (about 8 hours later), they were reluctant to bring him back even though I insisted and they pronounced him dead. It's like they were in a rush to bury their "mistake." My mom had a dream that he was 30 years younger and me and him were going to the top of a hill together after he told her he needed to buy some "new clothes." I had a dream we were running through an endless grass field (this was before he died), and now I know what that dream means. I believe my dream will come true because the night before he went to the hospital I had a dream he died. My dreams just tend to come true.

I lost my mother 8 months ago ,I miss you Wanda may you are always in my thoughts and prayers .

This song is so full of pain, for a lost loved one. Back in autum 2000 I lost my son, so I find comfort listen to this song, when the sorrow is too much for me. Thank you mr. Clapton, you are not alone, having lost someone deeply loved.

Can't listen to the song without start crying. RIP the 10 people died during the shooting act yesterday in the evening in Munich! Your souls never die!

I just had to listen to this song..I dont know why. Although its sad, it brings me a sort of peace. My heart goes out to anybody out there going through a difficult time. Stay strong❤🌹

Overwhelming BEAUTIFUL 💞 Moves me to tears each time in a peaceful way, thanks be to God who helps and loves us through such painful moments in our life's path. 🙏🙏🙏

I just lost my baby son 8 days ago...RIP Nufail ahmad...i dedicate this song to him...i'm sure no more tears in heaven...love you so much

ive lost a lot of people in my life, but the one person I dedicate this song to is my grandfather Art. Arthur Forrest Whitmarsh passed away on February 8th 1993. 2 months and 2 days before I was born. I hear all of these things about him from my dad, but it's not the same. I miss my grandfather that I've never met.

Lauren Gifford 3/11/89 - 1/18/13 Forever in my heart I miss you, sweetheart

I am one of the fortunate few who have never lost a loved on. All my grandparents are alive, my great grandparents died when i was too young to remember them or before i was born, both my parents are well, my siblings are all in good health, and the only pets I've ever lost have been gold fish. This song however, does make me realize that one day a family member i love will move on, that one day i will sit here and listen to this song, wondering if i will see that person again when i move on to heaven. I am sorry to all of you in the comments who have lost a loved one, and i pray that one day you will be reunited in heaven and it will be as though nothing has changed.

Reading the comments of people which lost their loved ones made me even more cry than the song itself Miss you, granny

I hope my sister, Dad, Nanny, and Poppy are always looking down on me. I can't wait to see them again.

My uncle just died today. I didn't know him well, though I'd known him my whole life. He was one of those relatives you barely see, but they always hold a place in your heart. He had special needs, he was the sweetest person I'd ever known. I can't believe he's gone. I know he's in heaven...he wouldn't be anywhere else. He was the only person I've ever known who was genuinely caring, kind and just all around amazing. Last time I saw him, it was to get money he wanted to give me. I went to his nursing facility, and only stayed for twenty minutes. I didn't even talk to him for that long, I thought I needed to get to the mall quickly. I can't believe what I've done. The last moments I spent with him were silent. He always told me I was his favorite niece, and I'd say I'm his only niece. I loved him so dearly and this taught me to never take a second for granted. Rest in Peace, my lovely uncle. You were the best man I've ever known. I hope you remember me in heaven, and forgive me now.

Sorry that y'all lost your loved ones. You can get through this! You're fighters!

Lost my younger brother at 33, can't get over it. This was played at his funeral. It's on repeat constantly. I miss him so much 😢

Daddy Karl this is for you love and miss you so much... it's so hard on momma that your not here to be with her any more but at least you are not in any more pain or suffering

My grandpa loved this song then he...passed I always cry😫😫😫😫😫😩😩😩😩

I believe in heaven. No one can make me think otherwise. I recently lost my twin sister March 28 2018 and this was one of the songs played during her service it's a beautiful yet sad song and brings me comfort. It's so hard to loose someone u love dearly so hard. This song is beautiful.

When I was young, I used to listen this song because I simply love the message on it. Now, Im a mother and I never thought the day would come to listen this again with a breaking heart. I lost my 8 weeks baby 💔. Till we meet again my little sweetheart.
