[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
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
~#**************#~
[Chorus 1]
~#**************#~
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
~#**************#~
Dont you worry, boy, dont you cry
~#**************#~
But when they ask, “Who was the one? Who did you love?”
~#**************#~
Let it be me
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
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
~#**************#~
[Chorus 2]
~#**************#~
Oh, if Heaven is a beautiful place
~#**************#~
But those gates dont 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 wont look back, but when they ask, “Who did you love?”
~#**************#~
Let it be me
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
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
~#**************#~
[Chorus 3]
~#**************#~
Until the clouds fall out of the sky
~#**************#~
And the snow falls down in July
~#**************#~
Let it be me that you think of
~#**************#~
Let it be me, the one that you love
~#**************#~
Until the flowers dont 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
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
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
