Take a look at me now

you coming back to me
is against all odds
and that's what I've got to face



How can I just let you walk away, just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath with you, oh
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, 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 all odds and that's what I've got to face

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

So 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
But to wait for you, well that's 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 standing here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
That's the chance I've got to take

Just take a look at me now

Wow- I didn't know Postal Service covered this song--it wasn't on their first album was it? I love it! I know it means a lot more for you right now, and I'm sorry for that.

I hope it works out for you soon...although in the meantime keep posting cool songs that I don't know about--Im totally ok with that :-)

Much Love,
Steve

Oh Steve you have no idea. It is eating me up. No matter how often I slap myself and tell myself to "man up". It still hurts.

I didn't know Postal Service covered it. I searched YT for the song and that video came up and I like it, cos it'S more modern.

Thank you so much for caring, Steve.
