It Had To Be You
It had to be you, it had to
be you,
I wandered around an'
finally found
Somebody who
Could make me be true
Could make me be blue
And even be glad, just to
be sad,
thinkin' of you,
Some others I've seen
Might never be mean
Might never be cross, or
try to be boss,
But they wouldn't do
For nobody else gave me a
thrill,
With all your faults, I
love you still,
It had to be you,
wonderful you,
it had to be you!

Some others I've seen
Might never be mean
Might never be cross, or
try to be boss,
But they wouldn't do
Nobody else gave me a
thrill,
With all your faults, I
love you still,
It had to be you, wonderful
you, it had to be you!
It just had to be you!
