take a look at me now lyrics

How can I just let you walk away?
Just let you leave without a trace
When I'm standing 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 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
There's just an empty space
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're coming back to me, it's 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
Well, there's just an empty space
There's nothing left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face

So take a look at me now
So 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
(Standing here)
And you coming back to me is against all odds
And that's a chance I've got to take

Chance I've got to take, got to take

Take a look at me now, ooh
Take a look at me now
Take a look at me now
