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 me

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 starlight

And all i see is him and me 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

And the river's just a river

Without him

The world around me changes

The trees are barren everywhere

And 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
