Westlife is a four piece Irish boy band currently composed of Shane Filan, Mark Feehily, Nicky Byrne and Kian Egan. They have had 14 #1 singles grace UK charts to date, which puts them second behind Elvis and The Beatles. In doing that, Westlife also set a record when their first 7 singles each reached number one on UK charts. Westlife have proven successful around the world except in the United States, where they have a sparse fanbase in spite of their A&R manager, Simon Cowell's fame. In 2004 they became a fourpiece when Dubliner Brian Mcfadden left the band.

Against All Odds Lyrics

Westlife

Duet with mariah carey

Shane:
How can i just let you walk away,
Just let you leave without a trace,
When i'm standing taking every breath,
With you, ooohhh,
You're the only one who really knew me,
At all.

Mariah:
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.

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,
So take a look at me now,
There's just an empty space,
If you're coming back to me it's against all odds,
And that's what i've got to face.

Mark:
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.

Mariah:
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,
So take a look at me now,
So there's just an empty space,
But to wait for you is all i can do,
When that's what i've got to face.

Take a good look at me now,
Cause i'll be standing here,
(mark: standing here)
And you coming back to me is against all odds,
And that's the chance i've got to take.

Westlife:
Got to take
Got to take

Mariah:
Ooh
Take a look at me now

Westlife:
Take a look at me now.
