This song makes me reflect on past times with someone I loved. With the New Year approaching, and wanting to close the book once and for all on a painful part of my life, I decided to post this comment. I recognize the similarities between this song and the situation with this love. I was the one to say "I'm sorry". I was the one to take the blame. I wasn't the one to throw it over. I have been the one to feel ashamed.
I have been treated poorly by people who I considered friends. That really hurts. In situations like these, one person is never solely to blame. He knows he played a big role in what happened between the two of us. Being judged unfairly is all part of the price I have paid. I was never anything but sweet to him. I had nothing but love. Getting over this is all a process and I am trying to figure it out. "I don't care how much it costs, I don't count the loss, as long as I can see your face again". When Eric Clapton sings this song, I understand. I'll always want to see his face again, I'll always want him to be happy. I know what true love is. I never would want him to be judged harshly for what happened between us. It was love. But, I wish he could admit his role and say "I'm sorry" to me.
This is a beautiful song. I am thankful that music can help us heal, can get us through. When I feel so sad and I really miss this person (who was a huge presence in my life), music can provide strength. This man was my friend. He meant a lot to me. He always will. I have dealt with many sad situations in my life, but none come close to this one. It has brought me a lot of tears, but when I see his face I always smile.
