verse 1
D Em/D D D/C#
on my own , pretending he’s beside me
Bm E7 A A/G#
all alone , i walk with him till morning
G F#7 Bm
without him , i feel his arms around me
Em Em/D A
and when i lose my way i close my eyes , and he has found me

verse 2
D Em/D D D/C#
in the rain the pavement shines like silver
Bm E7 A A/G#
all the lights are misty in the river
G F#7 Bm
in the darkness , the trees are full of starlight
Em Em/D A
and all i see is him and me for ever and forever

bridge

A# Cm7b5 A# A#/A
and i know it’s only in my mind
Gm Gm/F D#
that i’m talking to myself and not to him
Em B B7
and although i know that he is blind
Am7 – hold C7 – hold
still i say , there’s a way for us

verse 3

F Gm F F/E
i love him , but when the night is over
Dm G7 C C/B
he is gone , the river’s just a river
A# A7 Dm
without him the world around me changes
Gm Gm/F C
the trees are bare and everywhere , the streets are full of strangers

verse 4

F Gm F F/E
i love him , but every day i’m learning
Dm G7 C
all my life i’ve only been pretending
A# A7 Dm
without me his world will go on turning
Gm Gm/F C – hold
a world that’s full of happiness , that i have never known

ending

F F7 A# A#m F
i love him , i love him , i love him , but only on my own
