Let It Be Me

If the day comes that you must leave

Let me be the ground to your feet

If the day comes that you feel weak

Let me be the armor you need

Oh, if falling in love is a crime

And the price to pay is my life

Give me the sword, bring all the knives

Hand me the gun, I will not run

And when they spare everything but my pride

Don't you worry, boy, don't you cry

But when they ask

Who was the one? Who did you love?

Let it be me

If you ever meet your last breath

Let me be the last word you say

And if right comes, but you choose left

I will be the first to forgive

Oh if heaven is a beautiful place

But those gates don't have enough space

And they lock you out

Spare you no flame

I will come down there on my wings

And when the angels call me a fool

For giving all my grace up for you

I won't look back, but when they ask

Who did you love?

Let it be me

Let it be me that you think of

When everything tells you to give it up

Let it be me that will anchor your soul

Until the clouds fall out of the sky

And the snow fall down in July

Let it be me that you think of

Let it be me the one that you love

Until the flowers don't bloom in May

And forever runs out of days

Let it be me

Let it be me

The one that you love

Let it be me

Let it be me

Let it be me

Let it be me

Let it be me, let it be me

Oh, let it be me
