Jimmy Jam - Against All Odds (Take A Look At Me Now) lyrics

[Intro] Whoa [Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Verse 3] 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 [Verse 4] So take a look at me now When there's just an empty space And you're coming' back to me is against all odds And that's what I've got to face [Verse 5] I wish I could just make you turn around Turn around to 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 [Verse 6] 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 [Verse 7] 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 [Verse 8] Take a good look at me now 'Cause I'll be standing here And you coming back to me Is against all odds It's the chance I've gotten Take Hey yeah [Outro] Whoa Take a look at me now Mmh
