How can I just let you walk away?
Just let you leave without a trace?
When I stand here taking every breath with you, uh uh
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
So take a look at me now
Oh there's just an empty space
And there's nothin' left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
Ooh, Take a look at me now
'Cause there's just an empty space
And you comin' 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 nothin' left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
Take a look at me now
'Cause there's just an empty space
But to wait for you, well that's all I can do
And that's what I gotta face
Take a good look at me now
'Cause I'll still be standin' here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
It's the chance I've gotta take
Take a look at me now
