Ever since the day that you walked away I've prayed to God for a chance to say How much I love you, how bad I need you Look at me now, I got no one to lean to Lost and alone, broken and wronged Now open your heart and listen to this song I cry and cry and I wonder why You brought me down when I once stood tall But you're the only one who ever knew me at all
chorus: So take a look at me now, oh there’s just an empty space And there’s nothing 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
Just take one look, and see my cry See me die, no wings to fly Broken into, yearning for you Day after day, I wish you'd turn around Just to see my face, see my pain Save me from my tears, before I drown Girl come back and break down this wall 'Cause you're the only one who ever really knew me at all
repeat chorus
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, cos 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 Just take a look at me now One more time... Look into my eyes...
NOTE: This song was originally written and sang by Phil Collins. I fused my lyrics with his to make a revised version.

Interesting collaboration there John. This was a nice piece. I just can't get past the original version though....
