It Had to Be You
Capturing Love's Essence: It Had to Be You by Tony Bennett
Lyrics
It seems like dreams I've always have
Seems like the dreams I've consistently had
Could be, should be making me glad
These dreams have the potential to bring me joy
But why am I blue?
Despite this, I'm feeling melancholic
It's up to you to explain
I look to you to clarify why
I'm thinking maybe, baby, I'll go away
I'm considering leaving, perhaps
Someday, someway you'll come and say
Anticipating that one day, somehow, you'll express
It's you that I need
That it's specifically you that I require
Maybe you'll be pleading in vain
Maybe you'll be pleading for my return without success
It had to be you, it had to be you
It was destined to be you, no one else
I wandered around and finally found
I roamed aimlessly until I finally discovered
The somebody who could make me be blue
The person who has the ability to make me feel down
Could make me be true or even be glad
Capable of making me authentic or even joyful
Just to be sad, thinking of you
Even if it means I'm sorrowful just thinking of you
Some others I've seen, might never be mean
Others I've encountered might not exhibit cruelty
Might never be cross or try to be boss
They may not act harshly or try to dominate
But they wouldn't do
But they wouldn't suffice
For nobody else gave me a thrill
No one else excited me as much
With all your faults I love you still
Despite your imperfections, I still love you
It had to be you,
It was inevitably you
Wonderful you, it had to be you
Wonderful you, it just had to be you
