on my own
pretending she's beside me
all alone
i walk with her til morning
without her
i feel her arms around me
and when i lose my way i close my eyes
and she 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 her and
me forever and forever
and i know it's only in my mind
that i'm talking to
myself and not to her
and although i know that she is blind
still i say there's a way for us
i love her
but when the night is over
she is gone
the river's just a river
without her
the world around me changes
the trees are bare and everywhere
the streets are full of strangers
i love her
but every day i'm learning
all my life
i've only been pretending
without me
her world will go on turning
a world that's full of happiness
that i have never known
i love her
i love her
i love her
but only on my own
