Mariah Carey - Against All Odds, Hero(+ Luciano Pavarotti)

 

 

How can I just let you walk away
Just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here
Taking every breath with you
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 shared
The laughter and the pain
And even shared the tears
You're the only one
Who really knew me at all   (REFRAIN)
So take a look at me now
There's just an empty space
There's nothing left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face   Take a good look at me now
There's just an empty space
And you coming back to me
Is against all the odds
And that's what I got to take   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   (REPEAT REFRAIN) Take a good look at me now
There's just an empty space
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
'Cause I'll still be standing there
And you coming back to me
Is against all the odds
And that's what I got to take   Take a good look at me now

 

 

 

 

 

There's a hero
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away

[Chorus:]
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

It's a long road
When you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold
You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt
Will disappear

[Chorus]

Lord knows
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away
Hold on
There will be tomorrow
In time
You'll find the way

[Chorus]
