Let It Be Me

You say you want someone with open arms to walk into
A knight who shines inside a shabby suit
The kind of guy who’d rather die than not have you
So that he could never be untrue
You say that his heart would miss precious beats
If you began to kiss him tenderly
No richer than the average man but poor in vanity
Well, if that is all you want then, honey please
Let it be me
Let it be me
Well, he should hold himself like no one else you’ve ever seen
And make you proud to step out in the street
And he should help you kill the doubts that fill your every dream
Well, hey if that is all he has to be
Let it be me
Let it be me
Let it be me who holds your cup while you put on your makeup
Let it be me who creeps ‘round quietly before you wake up
Let it be me who brings you toast and asks “who loves you most?”
Baby let it be me
You say you want someone with boyish charm and manners too
Who will take a risk and follow destiny
The kind who holds the door whatever you’re going through
Somebody who, in loving you sets you free
Baby let it be me
Baby let it be me
Let it be me
Let it be me
Let it be me…………
