From LyricWiki

How can I just let you walk away,
just let you leave without a trace?
When I stand here taking every breath with you, oo-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?
'Cos 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 mem'ry 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 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.
And there's nothing left here to remind me,
just the mem'ry of your face.
Now take a look at me now:
'cos there's just an empty space
But to wait for you
is all I can do and that's what I've gotta face
Take a good look at me now,
'cos I'll still be standing here
And you coming back to me
is against all odds. It's the chance I've gotta take
Take a look at me now
just let you leave without a trace?
When I stand here taking every breath with you, oo-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?
'Cos 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 mem'ry 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 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.
And there's nothing left here to remind me,
just the mem'ry of your face.
Now take a look at me now:
'cos there's just an empty space
But to wait for you
is all I can do and that's what I've gotta face
Take a good look at me now,
'cos I'll still be standing here
And you coming back to me
is against all odds. It's the chance I've gotta take
Take a look at me now
