Against All Odds (Bossa Version)

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
'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
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
Take a look at me now
'Cause there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against the odds
That's the chance I've got to face, hm

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's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
Take a look at me now
'Cause that's just an empty space
But to wait for you is all I can do
That's a chance I've got to face
Take a good look at me now
'Cause I will 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, hm
Take a look at me now, hm
Take a look at me now
