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 look at me now
`cause I`ll still be standing here
and you coming back to me is against all odds
that`s the chance I`ve got to take
take a look at me now
