On My Own Lyrics

On My Own lyrics

Eponine
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
I can make believe he's here

Sometimes I walk
alone at night
When everybody else is sleeping
I think of him and 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
Without 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
forever and forever

And I know it's only in my mind
That I'm talking
to myself and not to him
And although he may be 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 everywhere
The streets are full of
strangers

I love him
But every day I'm learning
All my
life
I've only been pretending
Without me
His world would 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.
