AGAINST ALL ODDS (TAKE A LOOK AT ME NOW) (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, ooh 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’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
    ‘Cause there’s just an empty space
    There’s nothing left here to remind me
    Just the memory of your face
    Ooh 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
    Now 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
    Is the chance I’ve got to take
    Take a look at me now...
