Testo On My Own - Live - Lea Salonga
Testo della canzone On My Own - Live (Lea Salonga), tratta dall'album Lea Salonga Live Vol. 2
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 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
Are you okay? Ha-ha
On My Own was actually my audition song for Miss Saigon
A friend of mine said, "Oh, you should sing On My Own"
And I said, "Oh, you mean that Patti LaBelle song?"
And he said no
So he gave me the cassette and I was blown away
So, yes cassette
I am old
So I sing it and the producers ask for another song
I didn't have another song
I could sing The Greatest Love of All
And Claude-Michel Schönberg looks at me and says, "Yes, but eh, do not sing it like her"
I'm guessing he meant Whitney Houston
