[Verse 1]
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 on saying I had to wait,
I saw them all, just couldn't fall 'til we met.
[Refrain]
It had to be you, it had to be you,
I wandered around and finally found
the somebody who
Could make me be true, 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.
[Verse 2]
Seems like dreams like I always had,
could be, should be making me glad.
Why am I blue? it's up to you to explain.
I'm thinking maybe, baby, I'll go away
some day, some way you'll come and say:
"It's you I need", and you'll be pleading in vain.
[Refrain]
