I blessed the day I found you,
I want to stay around you,
And so I beg you,
Let it be me.

Don’t take this heaven from one,
If you must cling to someone,
Now and forever,
Let it be me.

Each time we meet love,
I find complete love,
Without your sweet love,
What would life be?

So never leave me lonely,
Tell me you love me only,
And that you’ll always
Let it be me

Each time we meet love,
I find complete love,
Without your sweet love,
What would life be?

So never leave me lonely,
Tell me you’ll love me only,
And that you’ll always,
Let it be me.
