On My Own

On my own pretending he's beside me

All alone I walk with him till morning

Without him I feel his arms around

And when I loose 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 darkness the trees are full of starlights

And all I see is him and me

Forever and forever

And I know its only in my mind

That I'm talking to myself 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 everywhere

The streets are full of strangers

I love him but everyday 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
