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.
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
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 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 memory of your face.
So 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 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...
Just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath, with you, ooh.
You're the only one who really knew me at all.
