Rowdy Ligthart - On My Own

On my own
Pretending she's beside me
All alone
I walk with her till morning
Without her
I feel her arms around me
And when I loose 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 him and me forever

And I know
Its 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
And the river's just a river
Without her
The world around me changes
The trees are barren and everywhere
The streets are full of strangers

I love her
But everyday I'm learning
All my life
I've only been pretending
Without me
Her world will go on turning
The world is full of happiness
That I have never known

I love her
I love her
I love her
But only
On my own
