Let It Be You
Letit be you who lean above meOn my last day,Let it be you who shut my eyelidsForever and aye.Say a “Good-night” as you have said itAll of these years,With the old look, with the old whisperAnd without tears.You will know then all that in silenceYou always knew,Though I have loved, I loved no otherAs I love you.

Letit be you who lean above me
On my last day,
Let it be you who shut my eyelids
Forever and aye.
Say a “Good-night” as you have said itAll of these years,With the old look, with the old whisperAnd without tears.
Say a “Good-night” as you have said it
All of these years,
With the old look, with the old whisper
And without tears.
You will know then all that in silenceYou always knew,Though I have loved, I loved no otherAs I love you.
You will know then all that in silence
You always knew,
Though I have loved, I loved no other
As I love you.
