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...........
