Let It Be Me
Petula Clark Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I 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

So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only




And that you'll always
Let it be me

QUE SEJA EU

Eu agradeço o dia que eu te encontrei
E quero ficar ao seu lado
E, então, peço a você:
Que seja eu !!!!

Não tire esse Paraíso desse alguém
E se você for ligar-se a alguém
Para todo o sempre:
Que seja eu

Todo momento que descobrimos o Amor
Encontro um amor tão completo
Sem o seu doce, doce amor
O que seria a vida ?
Então, nunca me deixe sozinha
Diga-me que somente a mim, você ama
E que você sempre , deixará:
Que seja eu
Para todo o sempre:
que seja eu !!!!
