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 [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/m/mariah_carey/against_all_odds_take_a_look_at_me_now.html ]
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
So take a look at me now
'Cause 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
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
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
That's the chance I've got to take
I wish i could sing this to you my prince, you will always be the reason why i'm alive... Even if i know you can't be mine... But what we had shared and my love for you will forever linger... No one can ever replace you... No one else...
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
