What are the lyrics for Les Miserables On My Own?

Answer 1

On my own, pretending he's beside me

All alone, I walk with him 'til 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

(The version sung in the Les Miserables musicals has an intro that Eponine sings before the first line, but this is the song from the 2012 movie.)
