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'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



Take a look at me now



'cause there's just an empty space



And you coming back to me is against all 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



'cause there's just an empty space



And there's nothing 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 is



All I can do



And that's what I've got to face



Take a good look at me now



'cause l'll still be standing here



And you coming back to me is against all odds



That's the chance I've qot to take
