English Words by Mann Curtis and Music by Gilbert Becaud



I bless the day I found you

I want to stay around you

And so I beg you, let it be me



Dont 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 youll always 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 youll always---let--itbe--me
