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
|
