Nina Simone - Let It Be Me Lyrics
Gilbert becaud, m. curtis, pierre delanoeI bless the day I found you,I want to stay around youAnd so I beg you, let it be me.Dont take this heaven from one,If you must cling to someoneNow and forever, let it be me.Each time we meet, love,I find complete love.Without your sweet loveWhat would life be?So never leave me lonely,Tell me youll love me onlyAnd that youll always let it be me.If for each bit of gladnessSomeone must taste of sadnessIll bear the sorrow, let it be me.No matter what the price isIll make no sacrifices.Through each tomorrow let it be me.To you Im praying,Hear what Im saying.Please, let your heart beatFor me, just me.And never leave me lonely,Tell me youll love me onlyAnd that youll always let it be me,Let it be me.Original french lyricsComme largileLinsecte fragileLesclave docileJe tappartiensDe tout monþtreTu es le seul matreJe dois me soumettreJe tappartiensSi tu condamnesJetant mon meAu creux des flammesJe ny peux rien1Avec les peinesLamour et la haineCoulant dans mes veinesJe tappartiensQue puis-je fairePour te satisfairePatron de la terreSur mon cheminComme les angesChanter tes louangesMais je ne suis pas un angeTu le sais bienJe ne suis quun hommeRien quun pauvre hommeJe taime commeComme un copainSouvent je penseQue dans ton immensePalais de silenceTu doisþtre bien
