Nina Simone Let It Be Me

God bless 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?

Don't ever leave me lonely,
say me you'll love me only
and that you'll always let it be me.
