It Had to Be You
Embracing Fate: Love's Unique Journey
Lyrics
It had to be you, it had to be you.
Expressing inevitability and uniqueness, the singer believes it was destined for a particular person (referred to as "you").
I wandered around and finally found the somebody who
After searching, the singer has found someone special who has the ability to make them genuine and honest.
Could make me be true, could make me feel blue,
Attributing the power to the mentioned person to evoke both truthfulness and sadness.
And even be glad just to be sad thinkin' of you.
Even finding joy in experiencing sadness when thinking about the person, emphasizing a deep emotional connection.
Some others I've seen might never be mean
Comparing others who may not display negative qualities, but stating that they are not the right fit.
Might never be cross or try to be boss,
Highlighting the unsuitability of others who may not be mean, cross, or assertive.
But they wouldn't do.
Reiterating that others are not the right choice for the singer.
For nobody else gave me a thrill.
Expressing that no one else has provided the same excitement or thrill as the person being referred to.
With all your faults, I love you still,
Despite acknowledging imperfections, the singer declares enduring love for the person.
It had to be you, wonderful you,
Reiterating the inevitability and wonder of the connection with the mentioned person.
It had to be you.
Emphasizing that the unique individual referred to is the only fitting choice for the singer.
It had to be you, it had to be you.
Repeating the theme of inevitability and uniqueness in the choice of the person.
I wandered around and finally found somebody who
Continuing the narrative of finding someone special who induces truthfulness and a range of emotions.
Could make me be true, could make me be blue,
Highlighting the ability of the person to make the singer both true and blue (sad).
And even be glad just to be sad thinkin' of you.
Expressing joy even in sadness when thoughts are centered on the mentioned person.
Some others I've seen might never be mean
Comparing others who lack negative traits but asserting that they are not the right match.
Might never be cross or try to be boss,
Reiterating that others, without negative qualities, are still not suitable for the singer.
But they wouldn't do.
Emphasizing the unsuitability of others in contrast to the unique connection with the mentioned person.
For nobody else gave me a thrill.
Stating that no one else has provided the same thrilling experience as the person referred to.
With all your faults, I love you still.
Affirming enduring love despite recognizing the imperfections of the person.
It had to be you, wonderful you
Repeating the sentiment of inevitability and expressing admiration for the uniqueness of the person.
It had to be you.
Concluding the song by emphasizing the inevitability and wonder of the connection with the mentioned person.
