Lyrics

[00:23] And now I'm all alone again
[00:25] Nowhere to go, no one to turn to
[00:29] I did not want your money, sir
[00:32] I came out here because I was told to
[00:35] And now the night is near
[00:38] Now I can make believe he's here
[00:44] Sometimes I walk alone at night
[00:46] When everybody else is sleeping
[00:51] I think of him and then I'm happy
[00:53] With the company I'm keeping
[00:57] The city goes to bed
[01:00] And I can live inside my head
[01:12] Own my own
[01:15] Pretending he's beside me
[01:21] All alone
[01:23] I walk with him till morning
[01:29] Without him
[01:31] I feel his arms around me
[01:35] And when I lose my way I close my eyes
[01:38] And he has found me
[01:42] In the rain, the pavement shines like silver
[01:50] All the lights are misty in the river
[01:57] In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
[02:04] And all I see is him and me forever and forever
[02:10] And I know, it’s only in my mind
[02:18] That I’m talking to myself and not to him
[02:25] And although I know that he is blind
[02:31] Still I say, there’s a way for us
[02:39] I love him
[02:41] But when the night is over
[02:46] He is gone
[02:48] The river is just a river
[02:53] Without him, the world around me changes
[02:58] The trees are bare and everywhere
[03:01] The streets are full of strangers
[03:05] I love him
[03:07] But every day I’m learning
[03:12] All my life, I’ve only been pretending
[03:20] Without me, his world will go on turning
[03:25] A world full of happiness that I have never known
[03:33] I love him
[03:37] I love him
[03:43] I love him
[03:45] But only on my own
