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 comming back to me is against all odds

It's the chance I've gotta take

Take a look at me now
