Mariah Carey And Westlife - Against All Odds

Written by Phil Collins

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?
'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
There's just an empty space
There's nothing left here to remind me
Just a memory of your face
So take a look at me now
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
There's nothing left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
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
'Cos 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
(Chance I've got to take, got to take)
So take a look at me now
Take a look at me now
Take a look at me now
