I Looked Away

Written by Eric Clapton & Bobby Whitlock
and performed by the Derek & the Dominos

She took my hand

And tried to make me understand

That she would always be there,

But I looked away

And she ran away from me today;

I'm such a lonely man.

It came as no surprise to me

That she'd leave me in misery.

It seemed like only yesterday

She made a vow

that she'd never walk away.

And if it seemed a sin

To love another man's woman, baby,

I guess I'll keep on sinning

Loving her, Lord,

till my very last day.

But I looked away

And she ran away from me today;

I'm such a lonely man.

Youtube has taken down some original clips
of EC performing this song.
It may be my favorite EC song of all time.
Regardless, click here to listen to the studio cut:
