I thought Eric Clapton's child was leaning against a glass pane and in a freak accident the glass came out?

It is hard for me to imagine a child dropping toys out of a window on pedestrians for more than one or two seconds before ANY sensible parent removed the child firmly from the opportunity to do so and locked the window for good. You really should try taxing your imagination, Christine. Some parents do not have the luxury of hovering over their children every second--possibly to the eventual health of their children. If you cannot push your imagination sufficiently, I suggest reading Susan Fromberg Schaeffer's Love, which speaks about the world before the Chardonnay generation.

Eric Claptons tribute song to his son Conor, In late 1990, the fates delivered Clapton a terrible blow when guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan and Clapton road crew members Colin Smythe and Nigel Browne--all close friends of Clapton's--were killed in a helicopter crash. A few months later, he was dealt another cruel blow when Conor, his son by Italian model Lori Del Santo, fell forty-nine stories from Del Santo's Manhattan high-rise apartment to his death. Clapton channeled his shattering grief into writing the heart-wrenching 1992 Grammy-winning tribute to his son, "Tears in Heaven." River Of Tears (by Eric Clapton, Simon Clime) It's three miles to the river That would carry me away, And two miles to the dusty street That I saw you on today. It's four miles to my lonely room Where I will hide my face, And about half a mile to the downtown bar That I ran from in disgrace. Lord, how long have I got to keep on running, Seven hours, seven days or seven years? All I know is, since you've been gone I feel like I'm drowning in a river, Drowning in a river of tears. Drowning in a river. Feel like I'm drowning, Drowning in a river. In three more days, I'll leave this town And disappear without a trace. A year from now, maybe settle down Where no one knows my face. I wish that I could hold you One more time to ease the pain, But my time's run out and I got to go, Got to run away again. Still I catch myself thinking, One day I'll find my way back here. You'll save me from drowning, Drowning in a river, Drowning in a river of tears. Drowning in a river. Feels like I'm drowning, Drowning in the river. Lord, how long must this go on? Drowning in a river, Drowning in a river of tears.
