INTRO: D5  E5  D5  E5


VERSE 1:
       D5       E5            D5     D
 On my own, pretending he's beside me.

      B5      E5                 A5     A5
 All alone, I walk with him till morning.

         G5      F#5            B5
 Without him , I feel his arms around me.

     E5                            E5            A5
 And when I lose my way I close my eyes and he has found me!



VERSE 2:
        D5         E5                 D5     D
 In the rain, the pavement shines like silver.

         B5         E5           A5    A5
 All the lights are misty in the river.

        G5             F#5               B5
 In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight.

     E5                         E5        A5
 And all I see is him and me forever and forever.



BRIDGE:
       Bb5        Cb5    Bb5  Bb5
 And I know it's only in my mind,

          G5           Bb5            Eb5
 that I'm talking to myself and not to him.

         E5                      B5    B5
 And, although I know that he is blind,

         A5           C5
 still I say there's a way for us.



VERSE 3:
   F5             G5              F5   F
 I love him. But when the night is over.

       D5        G5             C5    C5
 He is gone, the river's just a river.

     Bb5           A5               D5
 Without him , the world around me changes,

     G5                                G5                C5
 the trees are bare and everywhere the streets are full of strangers.



VERSE 4:
   F5             Bb5          F5       F
 I love him , but every day I'm learning.

        D5         G5           C5      C5
 All my life, I've only been pretending.

     Bb5          A5                D5
 Without me, his world will go on turning.

   G5                                               C5
 A world that's full of happiness that I have never known.



ENDING:
   F5
 I love him ,

   F5
 I love him ,

   D5
 I love him ,

     Bb5     F5
 but only on my own.
