It Had to Be You

It had to be you
It had to be you
I've wandered around,
And finally found
That somebody who
Could make me be true
Could make me be blue
Oh 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
It had to be you
It had to be you
I've wandered around,
And finally found
That somebody who
Could make me be true
Could make me be blue
Or 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
It had to be you
It had to be you
Some others I've seen
They 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!
It had to be you
It had to be you (It had to be you baby!)
It had to be you (It had to be you baby!)
It had to be you (It had to be you baby!)
It had to be you (It had to be you baby!)
It had to be you (It had to be you baby!)
It had to be you
