How can I just let you walk away
Just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath with you
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
Even shared the tears
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

Well take a look at me now
Well 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

Well take a look at me now
Well 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

Now take a look at me now
I'll still be standing here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
Its the chance I've got to take

Take a look at me now
Take a look at me now
