Tears in Heaven

I heard this song before but never paid attention what it is about...until Owen tells me about the story behind it. Eric Clapton tributed this song to his preschool son, who died in an accident. His son died when he fell from a 53rd-story window in New York City apartment, and landed on the roof of an adjacent four-story building. The lyrics is so touching...tears came down from my eyes...Tears In Heaven, by Eric Clapton and 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 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.
