Barry Manilow Against All Odds Lyrics

Against All Odds Lyrics

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



So 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



Well, take a look at me now

Well, there's just an empty space

And you coming back to me is against the odds

And that's what I've got to face

Take a look at me now



Oh, 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



'Cause you're the only one

Who really knew me at all



So 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 there's just an empty space

But to wait for you is all I can do

And that's what I've gotta face



Take a good look at me now

'Cause I'll still 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

Take a look at me now
