I know this isn't really a modern song, but whenever I hear On My Own from the musical Les Misérables, I always think of Èowyn thinking of Aragorn. I'm not going to type it all, but here is most of it:
Sometimes I walk alone at night
When everybody else is sleeping
I think of him and then I'm happy with the company I'm keeping
The city goes to bed
And I can live inside... my head
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 darkness,
The trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me forever and forever
And I know
That it's only in my mind
That I'm talking to myself,
And not to him
........
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
----------------------
That's most of it, and I think it perfectly describes Èowyn's feelings towards Aragorn.
