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, ooh
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
Cos 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,
'cos 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,
'cos 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,
'cos 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,
'cos 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,
'cos 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, oh, oho


Just take a look at me now

Um, yeah, this is a break up song. She left him and he wants her back and her coming back to him is "Against All Odds"
No this is a get together song. They made it back together as a couple.
Doesnt sound like a sweet wedding song if its about breaking up???
Definitely a break up song. He even said "You coming back is against the odds" meaning it's unlikely they'll get back together. Not a good wedding song.
love this song.
I love this song. But this not a wedding song.
A wedding is suppose to be happy, why would you choose this song. I guess you're not expecting to stay together very long
It's a beautiful, tear-jerker of a song. However, it's NOT appropriate for a wedding!!!
Awesome song as is most of Phil Collin's songs, HOWEVER, if you play this at your wedding, hmmm... not so good...
Um I just listened to the song nice song but wrong all wrong! Come on now... This is cry drink ur self to the bottom of a bottle .
It's a nice song, it's about love---maybe for just playing while people are eating or the dancing/slow dancing part of the wedding!
Yea at first I was like "ooooh pretty"
than I was like "this is a break up song"
buttttttt it could work like in my case, we dated in middle school were friends through highschool. He even got married and moved out of state and "AGIANST ALL ODDS" he came back to me :P but im not picking this song! lol
