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 ooh
You're the only one who really knew me at allHow 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 allSo 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
Take a look at me nowWell 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, ohI 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 allSo 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 faceTake 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 faceTake a good look at me now
'Cause I'll still be standing here
And you coming back to me is against the odds
And it's what I've got to face
Take a look at me now
