This is truly just breathtaking….
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 I know that he is 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 will 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

I had to post this Broadway song too. Miss Saigon is my favorite show and this is one of the best from the show. Hope you like it.
Chris
In a place that won’t let us feel
In a life where nothing seems real
I have found youI have found you
Kim
In a world that’s moving too fast
In a world where nothing can last
I will hold you
I will hold you
Chris
Our lives will change, when tomorrow comes
Kim
Tonight our hearts drown the distant drums
Chris
And we have music, all rightTearing the night
Both
A song
Played on a solo saxophone
A crazy sound
A lonely sound
A cry that tells usLove goes on and onPlayed on a solo saxophone
It’s telling me
To hold you tight
And danceLike it’s the last night
Of the world
Chris
On the other side of the earthThere’s a place where life still has worth
I will take you
Kim
I’ll go with you
ChrisYou won’t believe all the tings you’ll see
I know ’cause you’ll see them all with me
Both
If we’re together, that’s whenWe’ll hear it again
A song
A crazy sound
A lonely sound
A cry that tells usLove goes on and onPlayed on a solo saxophone
It’s telling me
To hold you tight
And danceLike it’s the last night
Of the world
Kim
DreamsWere all I ever knew
Chris
DreamsYou won’t need when I’m through
Both
Anywhere we may be
I will sing with youA song –
(They dance together on the balcony)
Both
Played on a solo saxophone
So stay with meAnd hold me tight
And dance Like it’s the last night of the world
