How can I just let you walk away,
just let you leave without a trace,
when I stand here taking every breath with you? Ooh
You're the only one who really knew me at all.
How can you just walk away from me
when all I can do is watch you leave
'cause we shared the laughter and the pain
and even shared the tears?
You're the only one who really knew me at all.
Ooh, take a look at me now,
well, there's just an empty space
and there's nothing left here to remind me
just the memory of your face.
So, take a look at me now
'cause there's just an empty space
and you coming back to me is against the odds
and that's what I've got to face.
I wish I could just make you turn around,
turn around and see me cry.
There's so much I need to say to you,
so many reasons why.
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So, take a look at me now,
'well, there's just an empty space
and there's nothing left here to remind me
just the memory of your face.
Now take a look at me now
'cause there's just an empty space
but to wait for you is all I can do
and that's what I've got to face.
Take a good look at me now
'cause I'll still be standing here
and you comin' back to me is against all odds,
it's the chance I've got to take.
Take a look at me now!
