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

 

 

 

 

 

She calls out to the man on the street
"Sir, can you help me?
It's cold and I've nowhere to sleep,
Is there somewhere you can tell me?"

He walks on, doesn't look back
He pretends he can't hear her
Starts to whistle as he crosses the street
Seems embarrassed to be there

Oh think twice, it's another day for
You and me in paradise
Oh think twice, it's just another day for you,
You and me in paradise

She calls out to the man on the street
He can see she's been crying
She's got blisters on the soles of her feet
Can't walk but she's trying

Oh think twice...

Oh lord, is there nothing more anybody can do
Oh lord, there must be something you can say

You can tell from the lines on her face
You can see that she's been there
Probably been moved on from every place
'Cos she didn't fit in there

Oh think twice...

 

 

 

 

So you're leaving
In the morning
On the early train
Well I could say everything's alright
And I could pretend and say good bye

Got your ticket
Got your suitcase
Got your leaving smile
(Ohh) I could say that's the way it goes
And I could pretend and you won't know
That I was lying

Cause I can't stop loving you
No I can't stop loving you
No I won't stop loving you
Why should I

We took a taxi to the station
Not a word was said
I saw you walk across the road
For maybe the last time, I don't know

Feeling humble
Heard the rumble
On the railway track
And when I hear the whistle blow
I walk away and you won't know
That I'll be crying

Cause I can't stop loving you
No, I can't stop loving you
No I won't stop loving you
Why should I

(Even try)
I'll always be here by your side (why why why)
I never wanted to say goodbye (why even try)
I'm always here if you change, change your mind

So you're leaving
In the morning
On the early train
Well I could say everything's alright
And I could pretend and say good bye
That would be lying

Because I can't stop loving you
No I can't stop loving you
No I won't stop loving you
Why should I
Even try

Because I can't stop loving you
No I can't stop loving you
No I won't stop loving you
Why should I
Why should I
Why should I
Tell me why
Why should I
Even try

 

 

 

 

I need love, love, love, ooh to easy my mind
And I need to find, find someone to call mine, my mama said

Chorus:
You can't hurry love, oh you'll just have to wait
She said love don't come easy, it's a game of give and take
You can't hurry love, oh you'll just have to wait
Just trust in the good times, no matter how long it takes

But how many heartaches must I stand
Before I find a love to let me live again
'Cos right now the only thing that keeps me hangin' on
Is when I feel my strength, you know it's almost gone, I remember mama said

You can't hurry love, oh you just have to wait
She said love don't come easy, it's a game of give and take
How long must I wait, how much more must I take
Before loneliness will cause my h-heart to break

Now I can't bear to live my life alone
I've grown impatient for a lover to call my own
And when I feel that I, I can't go on
You know I feel my strength, you know it's almost gone, I remember mama said

chorus

Then I'm free

Well now love, love, love don't come easy
I know I'll keep on waiting, anticipating
For that soft voice to talk to me at night
For some tender arms to hold me tight
I keep waiting, ooh, till that day
But it ain't easy, you know it ain't easy, and my mama said

chorus

 

 

 

 

Come stop your crying
It will be alright
Just take my hand
Hold it tight
I will protect you
From all around you
I will be here
Don't you cry 

For one so small
You seem so strong
My arms will hold you
Keep you safe and warm
This bond between us
Can't be broken
I will be here
Don't you cry 

'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more 

You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart
Always

Why can't they understand
The way we feel
They just don't trust
What they can't explain
I know we're different but
Deep inside us
We're not that different at all 

And you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more 

Don't listen to them
'Cause what do they know?
We need each other
To have, to hold
They'll see in time
I know 

When destiny calls you
You must be strong
I may not be with you
But you've got to hold on
They'll see in time
I know
We'll show them together 

'Cause you'll be in my heart
Believe me you'll be in my heart
I'll be there from this day on
Now and forever more

Oh you'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart
Always 

Just look over your shoulder
Just look over your shoulder
Just look over your shoulder 

I'll be there always
