父親離開2年了

今天是父親離開我們兩年的日子，家裡舉行小小祭拜，感傷依舊，他已是我心中永遠的懷念。前幾天在看有關阿茲罕默症的報導，這就有點像在夢中夢到老爸，而他已經沒有和你說話。只是記憶中的身影在夢中呈現，塵歸塵，土歸土，也無法把兩年前或三年前和他再一起的影像倒帶抓回來。只想把他可能尚未完成的希望幫他實現。


突然想起一首Eric Clapton 唱的 Tears in Heaven雖然他是寫給他墜樓的兒子的歌，但每每聽到這首歌，就會想到一些過往的長輩和父親。


Tears In Heaven

Songwriters: Clapton, Eric Patrick; Jennings, Will;


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
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven


也希望父親在另一個世界平安快樂!
