River Of Tears .. Eric Clapton
 
It's three miles to the river That would carry me away,
And two miles to the dusty street
That I saw you on today.
It's four miles to my lonely room
Where I will hide my face,
And about half a mile to the downtown bar That I ran from in disgrace.
Lord, how long have I got to keep on running,
Seven hours, seven days or seven years?
All I know is, since you've been gone
I feel like I'm drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears. Drowning in a river.
Feel like I'm drowning,
Drowning in a river. In three more days,
I'll leave this town
And disappear without a trace. A year from now,
maybe settle down Where no one knows my face.
I wish that I could hold you
One more time to ease the pain,
But my time's run out and I got to go,
Got to run away again.
Still I catch myself thinking,
One day I'll find my way back here.
 
You'll save me from drowning, Drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
Drowning in a river. Feels like I'm drowning,
Drowning in the river. Lord, how long must this go on?
Drowning in a river, Drowning in a river of tears.
 
 
ERIC CLAPTON이 유명한 것은 훌륭한 가수라기 보다는
훌륭한 BLUES 기타리스트이기 때문...
 
영국 LIVERPOOL출신인 그는
십대 때부터 기타를 연주하며 무명 BAND를거쳐
YARDBIRDS, JOHN MAYALL'S BLUES BREAKERS,
BLIND FAITH, CREAM 등
SUPER GROUP을 통해 유명해졌으며
활동무대를 미국으로 옮겨갔다.
 
99년 그래미 시상식에서 BLUES아닌
POP 부문 남자 최우수 가창상을 받기도 한다.
90년대에 들어서는 과거에비해 좀더
대중적인 음악으로 제2의 전성기를 누리게 되어
대성공을 거두고 있다.
하지만 지난날의 BLUES 연주가 더 닿는 느낌이다.
