[Verse]
D Em D D/C#
On my own, pretending hes beside me,
Bm E A AM7
All alone, I walk with him till morning,
G F#7 Bm
Without him, I feel his arms around me,
Em A
And when I lose my way I close my eyes and he has found me.
D Em D D/C#
In the rain, the pavement shines like silver,
Bm E A AM7
All the lights are misty in the river,
G F#7 Bm
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight,
Em A
And all I see is him and me forever and forever.
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb G#7 Bb Bb/A
And I know its only in my mind,
Gm Gm7 Eb
That Im talking to myself and not to him,
Em B B7
And although I know that he is blind,
C C7
Still I say theres a way for us.
[Chorus]
F Gm F F/E
I love him, but when the night is over,
Dm G C CM7
He is gone, the rivers just a river,
Bb A7 Dm
Without him the world around me changes,
Gm C
The trees are bare and everywhere the streets are full of strangers.
F Gm F F/E
I love him, but every day im learning,
Dm G C CM7
All my life Ive only been pretending,
Bb A7 Dm
Without me his world will go on turning,
Gm C
A world thats full of happiness that I have never known.
[Outro]
F F7 Bb
I love him, I love him, I love him,
F#7 F
But only on my own.
