*****

And now I'm all alone again nowhere 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 ev'rybody 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 'till morning, with out 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 for ever and for ever,

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 ev'rywhere the streets are full of strangers,

I love him but ev'ryday I'm learning,
All my life I've only been pretending with out him,
His world will go on turning
A world that's full of happiness that I have never known

I love him, I love him, I love him but only on my own
