And now I'm all alone again,
No where to turn,
No one to go to.
Without a home without a friend, without a face to say hello to.
And now the night is near,
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,
And the rivers' 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.
