The Climax Mix of the song is heard in nearly every chapter that isn't specifically dedicated to a boss (i.e, The Cardinal Virtues), usually whenever a verse begins. It serves as a main fighting theme against, the Angels of Paradiso. The slower, original version by Brenda Lee plays during the second half of the game's credits, during the famous Bayonetta pole dancing end cutscene.

Lyrics
Fly me to the moon And let me play among the stars Let me see what Spring is like On Jupiter and Mars

In other words Hold my hand In other words Darling kiss me

Fill my heart with song And let me sing for ever more You are all I long for All I worship and adore

In other words Please be true In other words I love you
