Against All Odds Take A Look At Me Now - Lyrics by Mariah Carey


Lyrics
Whoa


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 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


So take a look at me now

When there's just an empty space

And you're comin' back to me is against all odds

And that's what I've got to face

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


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


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


Take a good look at me now
'
Cause I'll be standing here

And you comin' back to me

Is against all odds

It's the chance I've gotta

Take

Hey yeah


Whoa

Take a look at me now
