Why do i do, just as you say
Why must i just, give you your way
Why do i sigh, why don’t i try – to forget
It must have been, that something lovers call fate
Kept me saying: "i have to wait"
I saw them all, just couldn’t fall – ’til we met
It had to be you, it had to be you
I wandered around, and finally found – the somebody who
Could make me be true, and could make me be blue
And even be glad, just to be sad – thinking 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
