Postal Service - Against A

[slowegherkin]

How could i just let you walk away

just leave without a trace
when i stand here taking every breath for you
you're the only one 
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

take a look at me now
its just an empty space
theres nothing left here to remind me
just the memory of your face
take a look at me now
theres just an empty space
and if you coming back to me is against the odds
then thats what I gotta face

i wish i could just make you turn around
turn around and see me cry
theres 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
theres just an empty space
and theres nothing left here to remind me
just the memory of your face
so take a look at me now
oh theres just an empty space
but to wait for you is all i can do
and thats why i gotta face
so take a look at me now
i'll just be standing here
and you coming back to me is against the odds
and thats a chance i've gotta face
take a look at me now
take a look at me now
take a look at me now
take a look at me now
take a look at me now
take a look at me now
take a look at me now
take a look at me now
