On My Own

On my own, pretending he's beside me.

All alone I walk with him till morning.

With out him ness 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 in the river.

In the dark ness the trees are full of starlight.

And all I see is him and me forever and for ever.

And I know it's only in my mind

that I'm talking to my self and not to him.

And although I know that 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 ev'rywhere the streets are full of strangers.

I love him, but ev'ry day I'm learning,

all my life I've only been pretending.

Without me, his world will go on turning.

The world is full of happiness that I have never known.

I love him,

I love him,

I love him, but only on my own.
