PreEmtending he’s beDside me
All aBmlone I Ewalk with him till Amorning
WithGout him I F#feel his arms aBmround me
And Emwhen I lose my way I close my eyes
And he has Afound me
In the Drain the Empavement shines like Dsilver
All the Bmlights are Emisty in the Ariver
In the Gdarkness the F#trees are full of Bmstarlight
And Emall I see is him and me forEmever and forAever
And I Bbknow it’s Ebmonly in my Bbmind
That I’m Gmtalking to myself and not to Ebhim
And alEmthough I know that he is Bblind
Still I Amsay there’s a Cway for us
I Flove him
But Gmwhen the night is Fover
He is Dmgone, the Griver’s just a Criver
WithBbout him the Aworld around me Dmchanges
The Gmtrees are bare and everywhere
The Gmstreets are full of Cstrangers
I Flove him
But Gmevery day I’m F learning
All my Dmlife I’ve Gonly been preCtending
WithBbout me, his Aworld will go on Dmturning
A Gmworld that’s full of happiness
That I have never Cknown
I Flove him
I love him
I Dmlove him
But Bbmonly on my Fown
