On my own, Pretending he's besides me All alone I walk with him 'till morning Without him, I feel his arms around me And when I lose my way, I close my eyes and he has found me In the rain The pavement shines like silver All the lights are misty like a river In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight And all I see is him and me forever and forever And I know it's only on my mind That I'm talking to myself and not him And although I know he is blind Still I say there's a way for us I love him But when the night is over He is gone The river's just a river Without him, the world around me changes The trees are bare and everywhere the streets are full of strangers I love him But everyday I'm lonely All my life I've only been pretending Without me his world will go on turning The world is full of happiness I've never known I love him I love him I love him... But only on my own...
