Against All Odds
(Take a Look At Me Now)

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...
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...

Take a look at me now...


Phil Collins

A dream...

I had a misty dream, I slept with you.
As the world spun in the grace of
God's hands, we were comforted
by each other's nearness... And
somewhere in the misty midnight
shadows, when my arms encircled
you, and you folded your body
perfectly against mine, I knew that
neither darkness, nor the uncertainty
of the night would ever separate us.
but against all odds I love you and
I will never forget you, because
only you knew my soul... only you...

Who really knew me at all.
