This song, released in 1992 was written by Eric Clapton after the death of his 4 year old son, in march 20th 1991.
This song is about imagining founding back his son in heaven...
[Verse 1] Would you know my name if I saw you in Heaven? Would it be the same if I saw you in Heaven?
[Chorus] I must be strong and carry on ‘Cause I know I don't belong here in Heaven
[Verse 2] Would you hold my hand if I saw you in Heaven? Would you help me stand if I saw you in Heaven?
[Chorus] I'll find my way through night and day ‘Cause I know I just can't stay here in Heaven
[Bridge] Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees Time can break your heart, have you begging please Begging please
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus] Beyond the door, there's peace, I'm sure And I know there'll be no more tears in Heaven
[Verse 3] Would you know my name if I saw you in Heaven? Would you be the same if I saw you in Heaven?
[Chorus/Outro] I must be strong and carry on 'Cause I know I don't belong here in Heaven

I first said I would use "personal texts". That was a dumb idea, and no one (me included) is going to find anything so I'll use
"walking h. texts"
Gonna correct this on the other post
A timeless masterpiece from the album The Queen Is Dead, 1986.
Not a rock one, but her voice...
I know the poll is still going, but I still wanted to share so here's an exemple of what Other could be...
Lyrics under the cut ;)
[Verse 1] I'll be your mirror Reflect what you are, in case you don't know I'll be the wind, the rain, and the sunset The light on your door to show that you're home
[Chorus] When you think the night has seen your mind That inside, you're twisted and unkind Let me stand to show that you are blind Please put down your hands 'Cause I see you
[Verse 2] I find it hard to believe you don't know The beauty you are But if you don't, let me be your eyes A hand to your darkness so you won't be afraid
[Chorus] When you think the night has seen your mind That inside, you're twisted and unkind Let me stand to show that you are blind Please put down your hands 'Cause I see you
[Outro] I'll be your mirror (Reflect what you are) I'll be your mirror (Reflect what you are) I'll be your mirror (Reflect what you are) I'll be your mirror (Reflect what you are)

[Verse 3: Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé] Let the songs begin Déjalo nacer Let the music play, aaah-aaah-aaah! Make the voices sing Nace un gran amor Start the celebration Ven a mi, and cry, Grita Come alive, vive And shake the foundations from the skies (Aaaah-aaaah-aaaah!) Ah, ah, shaking all our lives (Aaaah!) Aaaaah!
[Chorus: Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé] [Both] (Barcelona) Such a beautiful horizon (Barcelona) Like a jewel in the sun Por ti seré gaviota de tu bella mar, aaaah-aaah-aaah-aaah (Barcelona) Suenan las campanas (Barcelona, ooh) Abre tus puertas al mundo (Aaaah) If God is willing, if God is willing If God is willing (Aaaaaaaah) Friends until the end Viva, (Aaaaaaaah) Ooh-ooh-ooh, aaah-aaah-aaah-aaaaaaah!
