Against All Odds

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
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
Girl we shared the laughter and the pain
We even shared the tears
You're the only one who really knew me at all

Take a look at me now
There is just an empty space
There's nothing left here to remind me
Just a memory of your face

Take a look at me now
There is just an empty space
And you're coming back to me is against the odds
That's a chance I've gotta take

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

Take a look at me now
There is just an empty space
There's nothing left here to remind me
Just a memory of your face

Take a look at me now
There is just an empty space
And girl just to wait for you is all I can do
And that's what I've gotta face

Take a look at me now
Cuz I will still be standing here
You're coming back to me is against the odds
That's a chance I gotta take

Take a look at me now
Coming back to me is against the odds
That's the chance I gotta take

Look at me now, now, now, now, now
I'm so sad, sad, sad, sad, sad
Look at me now, now, now, now, now
Sad, sad, sad, sad, sad
Look at me now, now, now, now, now
No, no, no, no, no
Look at me now, now, now, now, now
