Can't Find My Way Home - Eric Clapton

Lyrics



Come down off your throne and leave your body alone.
Somebody must change.
You are

the reason I've been waiting so long.
Somebody holds the key.

But I'm near the end

and I just ain't got the time
And I'm wasted and I can't find my way home.

Come

down on your own and leave your body alone.
Somebody must change.
You are the reason

I've been waiting all these years.
Somebody holds the key.

Chorus

But I

can't find my way home.
But I can't find my way home.
But I can't find my way

home.
But I can't find my way home.
Still I can't find my way home,
And I ain't

done nothing wrong,
But I can't find my way home.

Eric Clapton Lyrics

It's In The Way That You Use it - Eric Clapton

Lyrics



It's in the way that you use it,
It comes and it goes.
It's in the way that you

use it,
Boy don't you know.

And if you lie you will lose it,
Feelings will

show.
So don't you ever abuse it,
Don't let it go.

Nobody's right till

somebody's wrong.
Nobody's weak till somebody's strong.
No one gets lucky till luck

comes along.
Nobody's lonely till somebody's

gone.

Chorus

Chorus

First verse

I've seen dark skies, never like

this.
Walked on some thin ice, never like this.
I've told you white lies, never like

this.
Looked into true eyes, never like this.

Chorus

Eric Clapton Lyrics

White Room - Eric Clapton Lyrics



In the white room with black curtains near the station.
Blackroof country, no gold

pavements, tired starlings.
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark

eyes.
Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment.

I'll wait in this place

where the sun never shines;
Wait in this place where the shadows run from

themselves.

You said no strings could secure you at the station.
Platform ticket,

restless diesels, goodbye windows.
I walked into such a sad time at the station.
As I

walked out, felt my own need just beginning.

I'll wait in the queue when the trains

come back;
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves.

At the party she

was kindness in the hard crowd.
Consolation for the old wound now forgotten.
Yellow

tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes.
She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired

starlings.

I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd;
Lie in the dark where

the shadows run from themselves.

Eric Clapton Lyrics

Before You Accuse Me - Eric Clapton Lyrics



Before you accuse me, take a look at yourself
Before you accuse me, take a look at

yourself
You say I've been spending my money on other women
You've been taking money

from someone else

I called your mama 'bout three or four nights ago
I called your

mama 'bout three or four nights ago
Well your mother said son
Don't call my daughter

no more

First verse

Come back home baby, try my love one more time
Come

back home baby, try my love one more time
If I don't go on and quit you
I'm gonna lose

my mind

First verse

Eric Clapton Lyrics

Bell Bottom Blues - Eric Clapton Lyrics


(by eric clapton)

Bell bottom blues, you made me cry.
I don't want

to lose this feeling.
And if I could choose a place to die
It would be in your

arms.

Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me

beg you to take me back?
I'd gladly do it because
I don't want to fade away.
Give

me one more day, please.
I don't want to fade away.
In your heart I want to

stay.

It's all wrong, but it's all right.
The way that you treat me baby.
Once

I was strong but I lost the fight.
You won't find a better

loser.

Chorus

Chorus

Bell bottom blues, don't say goodbye.
I'm sure

we're gonna meet again,
And if we do, don't you be surprised
If you find me with

another lover.

Chorus

I don't want to fade away.
Give me one more day

please.
I don't want to fade away.
In your heart I long to stay.

Eric Clapton Lyrics

Crossroads - Eric Clapton Lyrics



I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees.
I went down to the crossroads,

fell down on my knees.
Asked the lord above for mercy, save me if you please.

I

went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride.
I went down to the crossroads, tried

to flag a ride.
Nobody seemed to know me, everybody passed me by.

I'm going down

to rosedale, take my rider by my side.
I'm going down to rosedale, take my rider by my

side.
You can still barrelhouse, baby, on the riverside.

You can run, you can run,

tell my friend-boy willie brown.
You can run, you can run, tell my friend-boy willie

brown.
And I'm standing at the crossroads, believe I'm sinking down.

Eric Clapton Lyrics

Layla - Eric Clapton Lyrics



What'll you do when you get lonely
No one waiting by your side?
You've been

running and hiding much too long.
You know it's just your foolish pride.

Layla,

you've got me on my knees.
Layla, I'm begging, darling please.
Layla, darling won't

you ease my worried mind.

I tried to give you consolation
When your old man had

let you down.
Like a fool, I fell in love with you,
Turned my whole world upside

down.

Chorus

Let's make the best of the situation
Before I finally go

insane.
Please don't say we'll never find a way
And tell me all my love's in

vain.

Chorus

Eric Clapton Lyrics

Cocaine - Eric Clapton Lyrics



If you wanna hang out you've got to take her out; cocaine.
If you wanna get down,

down on the ground; cocaine.
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie;

cocaine.

If you got bad news, you wanna kick them blues; cocaine.
When your day is

done and you wanna run; cocaine.
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie;

cocaine.

If your thing is gone and you wanna ride on; cocaine.
Don't forget this

fact, you can't get it back; cocaine.
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie;

cocaine.

She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie; cocaine.

Eric Clapton Lyrics

Lay Down Sally - Eric Clapton Lyrics



There is nothing that is wrong
In wanting you to stay here with me.
I know you've

got somewhere to go,
But won't you make yourself at home and stay with me?
And don't

you ever leave.

Lay down, sally, and rest you in my arms.
Don't you think you want

someone to talk to?
Lay down, sally, no need to leave so soon.
I've been trying all

night long just to talk to you.

The sun ain't nearly on the rise
And we still got

the moon and stars above.
Underneath the velvet skies,
Love is all that matters. won't

you stay with me?
And don't you ever leave.

Chorus

I long to see the

morning light
Coloring your face so dreamily.
So don't you go and say goodbye,
You

can lay your worries down and stay with me.
And don't you ever leave.

Chorus Eric Clapton Lyrics

After Midnight - Eric Clapton Lyrics



After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang down.
After midnight, we're gonna chug-a

-lug and shout.
We're gonna stimulate some action;
We're gonna get some

satisfaction.
We're gonna find out what it is all about.
After midnight, we're gonna

let it all hang down.

After midnight, we're gonna shake your tambourine.
After

midnight, it's all gonna be peaches and cream.
We're gonna cause talk and

suspicion;
We're gonna give an exhibition.
We're gonna find out what it is all

about.
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang down.

After midnight, we're

gonna let it all hang down.

Second verse

After midnight, we're gonna let it

all hang down.
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang down.
After midnight, we're

gonna let it all hang down.
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang down.

Tears In Heaven - Eric Clapton Lyrics


Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would you feel 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 feel 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...
