How can I just let you walk away,
Just let you leave without a trace?
When I stand here talking ev`ry breath with you, uuh.
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.
`Cos we shared the laughter and the pain
and even shed 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 mem`ry of your face.
Uuh take a look at me now
Well ther`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
Well there’s just an empty space
And there’s nothing left here to remind me,
Just the mem`ry of your face.
Now take a look at me now
`cos 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
Yes I’ll still be standing here.
And you coming back to me is against all odds,
It’s the chance I’ve got to take.
Take a look at me now.
