ERIC CLAPTON

- Pilgrim Lyrics

And how do I choose and where do I draw the line
Between truth and necessary pain?
And how do I know and where do I get my belief
That things will be all right again?

What words do I use to try and explain
To those who've witnessed all my tears?
And what does it mean to know all these things
When love's been wasted all these years?
When love's been wasted all these years?

Standin' in the shadows
With my heart right in my hand
Removed from all the people
Who could never understand

I was a pilgrim for your love
A pilgrim for your love
A pilgrim for your love
I was a pilgrim for your love

It's like livin' in a nightmare
Like lookin' in the blackest hole
Like standin' on the edge of nothing
Completly out of control
Now where have I been all these years
And how come I just couldn't see?
Like a blind man walking 'round in darkness
I was a pilgrim for your love
I was a pilgrim for your love

Standin' in the shadows
With my heart right in my hand
Removed from all the people
Who could never understand

Standin' in the shadows
With my heart right in my hand
Removed from all the people
Who could never understand

I was a pilgrim for your love
Pilgrim for your love
I was a pilgrim for your love
A pilgrim for your love

I was a pilgrim for your love
A pilgrim for your love
I was a pilgrim
Pilgrim for your love

Standin', shadows
Removed, people
Standin', shadows
Removed, people
Standin', shadows
Removed, people

What is the meaning behind Pilgrim lyrics?


When we think about the meaning behind each verse, the song 'Pilgrim' of Eric Clapton gives an insight into the feeling of yearning and faithfulness. In a way, the singer himself is a pilgrim on a holy journey, searching for love through his hardships. He is expressing his emotional pain through lyrics, feeling alienated from the rest of the world, wanting to be seen and loved even if that means going through the darkness and suffering of the past again. The main themes of the Pilgrim lyrics are love, heartache, reflection, angst and solitude. On the other hand, the song introduces the notion of love's advent, suffering and yearning, and eventually, the themes of isolation and misunderstanding. The lyrics delve into love, pain, and emotional struggle, which might not be appropriate for very young kids. Though there are no direct mentions of violence, sex, or drugs, the emotional intensity and intricacy of the themes imply that parental guidance might be necessary.
