Lyrics

Please tell me where you last saw him
Was he still alive?
Was he still breathing? Did he survive?
Tell me where I might find him
Underneath the stones
Just want to tell him he's not alone
Dear God, may I ask you?
Let it stop, I beg of you
Dear God, please forgive us
We know not what we do
Please take my hand and lead me
Down the road with you
Show me what I'm supposed to do
With all these tears the world is crying
Help us find the way
Lead us to a better day
Dear God, may I please ask you?
Let it stop, I beg of you
Dear God, please forgive us
We know not what we do
Written by: Eric Clapton
