On My Own

And now I'm all alone again

Nowhere to go, no one to turn to

Without a home, without a friend

Without a face to say hello to

And now the night is near

and now I can make believe he's here

Sometimes I walk alone at night

When everybody else is sleeping

I think of him and then I'm happy

With the company I'm keeping

The city goes to bed

And I can live inside my head

On my own, pretending he's beside me

All alone, I walk with him 'til 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 in the 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 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 every 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
