by Eric Clapton

Just like a prisoner, he don´t know right from wrong.
Just like a baby, he sings a pleading song

And that´s why so many tears must fall.
Yes, that´s why so many tears must fall.

Just like a sailor, he steers away from home.
He feels a tidal wave in his heart, but he ain´t alone
And that´s why so many tears must fall.
Yes, that´s why so many tears must fall.

I´m like that prisoner, I don´t know right from wrong.
Just like that baby, I sing a pleading song
And that´s why you´ll never know how I feel.
Yes, that´s why you´ll never know how I feel.
