Phil Collins
Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now)
[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, ooh

[Refrain]
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've shared the laughter and the pain
And even shared the tears

[Refrain]
You're the only one who really knew me at all

[Chorus]
So take a look at me now
Oh, there's just an empty space
And there's nothin' left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
Ooh, take a look at me now
Well, there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against all odds
And that's what I've got to face
[Verse 3]
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

[Refrain]
You're the only one who really knew me at all

[Chorus]
So, take a look at me now
Well, there's just an empty space
And there's nothin' left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
Now 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 still be standin' here
And you comin' back to me is against all odds
It's the chance I've gotta take

[Outro]
Take a look at me now
