"Old Love" lyrics
"Old Love"
I can feel your body
When I'm lying in bed
There's too much confusion
Going around through my head
And it makes me so angry
To know that the flame still burns
Why can't I get over?
When will I ever learn?
Old love, leave me alone
Old love, go on home
I can see your face
But I know that it's not real
It's just an illusion
Caused by how I used to feel
And it makes me so angry
To know that the flame will always burn
I'll never get over
I know now that I'll never learn
Old love, leave me alone
Old love, go on home
Writer(s): Eric Patrick Clapton, Robert William Cray
Blues singer
Robert Cray was a co-writer of this song. He also played a guitar solo on it.
This song is about the end of the relationship between Eric Clapton and Pattie Boyd, who were married for nine years. She told the Guardian newspaper in December 2008, "The end of a relationship is a sad enough thing, but to then have Eric writing about it as well. It makes me more sad, I think, because I can't answer back."
