凄美的钢琴前奏,略带沧桑的浅唱低吟,平淡无奇的歌词,仿佛演绎着一个缠绵悱恻的爱情故事,让人沉醉不已。
这首歌被翻成多国语言来翻唱,足见歌曲的魅力。其中有林忆莲的《没有你还是爱你》,辛晓琪的《自私》,因为语言的不同,歌曲的情绪也产生了微妙的变化。

You light up another cigarette.
And I pour the wineit’s four O’clock.
In the morning And it’s starting.
To get light Now I’m right here.
Where I want to be losing track of time.
But I wish that was still last night.
You look like you’re in another world.
But I can read your mind.
How can you be so far away.
Lying by my side
when I go away. I’ll miss you
And I will be.Thinking of you
Every night and day.
Just promise me you’ll wait for me.
Cause I’ll be saving all my love for you.
And I will be home soon.
Promise me you’ll wait for me.
I need to know you feel the same way too.
I’ll be home I’ll be home soon.
When I go away I’ll miss you.
And I will be thinking of you.
Every night and day just promise me.
You’ll wait for me.
Cause I’ll be saving all my love for you.
And I will be home soon.
Promise me you’ll wait for me.
I need to know you feel the same way too.
I’ll be home I’ll be home.
Promise me you’ll wait for me.
Cause I’ll be saving all my love for you.
And I will be home soon.
Promise me you’ll wait for me.
I need to know you feel the same way too.
And I’ll be home I’ll be home soon.

这首《泪洒天堂》是克莱普顿用他已经被悲痛碾得粉碎的心,为纪念他的儿子所作。
沙哑的嗓音,伤感的旋律,外加一颗疲惫的心,离去的人固然不在,可是这份思念他又是否明白。熟悉的一切唯独少了你,熟悉的声音如今只能到梦里去寻觅,他一夜好像苍老了许多,他一夜都在唱歌。
空旷的房间他只听到自己的琴声,可是他不敢停,因为他无法忘了曾经。

Would you know my name
你还记得我的名字吗 If I saw you in heaven
如果我在天堂遇见你 Would it be the same
你我还能像从前一样吗 If I saw you in heaven
如果我在天堂遇见你 I must be strong
我必须坚强 And carry on
坚持下去 'Cos I know I don't belong
因为我知道我并不 Here in heaven
属於天堂
Would you hold my hand
你会握我的手吗 If I saw you in heaven
如果我在天堂遇见你 Would you help me stand
你会扶我一把吗 If I saw you in heaven
如果我在天堂遇见你 I'll find my way
我会找到 through night and day
度日的方式 'Cos I know I just can't stay
因为我知道我不能 Here in heaven
留在天堂
Time can bring you down
时间使人消沉 Time can bend your knees
时间使人屈服
Time can break your heart
时间使人伤心 Have you begging please
你是否向它求饶
Begging please
Beyond the door
在那道门后There's peace I'm sure
必定是一片祥和 And I know
而我知道
There'll be no more
将不再有人

舒缓的旋律,磁性且略带伤感的声音,这是一首属于深夜的歌曲。
舒缓而不失情调的爵士,复古恋旧的情怀,会不会让你记起是灯光暗黄的小酒吧,你曾和一个人轻拥起舞的场景?
if i falling in love again
i will try to hear your voice
i try to feel your heart
and keep on love you
if i falling in love again
i will learn to say i love you
and try to touch your soul
if i falling in love again
and i will be your friend when you feeling lonely
and never gonna take you away from me
i will never leave you
i always love you
take me in the tie
if i falling in love again
i will try to be your man
i wish you could be mine
if i fall in love again
and i will be your friend
when you feeling lonely
and never gonna take me away from you
i never leave you
i always love you
take me in the tie
if i falling in love again

两个巨星联袂演绎,像是两个人的对白,彼此述说着各自曾经的恋人。
很喜欢这首歌表达的思想,现实中往往充斥着爱过之后,变形同陌路甚至仇人。总觉得如果真心爱过,就该记得对方的好,记得那种曾经的刻骨铭心。醉过方知酒浓,爱过方知情重。
