On My Own Song Lyrics by Samantha Barks
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 meIn 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 foreverAnd 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 usI 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 everywhere The streets are full of strangersI love him
But every day I’m learning All my life I’ve only been pretending Without me His world will go on turning A world that’s full of happiness That I have never knownI love him
I love him I love him But only on my own
