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've 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 nothing left here to remind me

Just the memory of your face

Oh take a look at me now, for 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 to 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 gotta face

Take a good look at me now, 'cause I'll still be standing here

And you coming back to me is against all odds

Is the chance I've got to take

Take a look at me now
