Why Did It Have To Be Me? lyrics

When you were lonely, you needed a man,

someone to lean on. Well, I understand,

it’s only natural,

but why did it have to be me?

Nights can be empty, and nights can be cold,

so you were looking for someone to hold.

That’s only natural,

but why did it have to be me?

I was so lonesome, I was blue,

I couldn’t help it, it had to be you,

and I always thought you knew the reason why.

I only wanted a little love affair,

now I can see you are beginning to care,

but baby, believe me,

it’s better to forget me.

Men are the toys in the game that you play;

when you get tired, you throw ’em away.

That’s only natural,

but why did it have to be me?

Falling in love with a woman like you

happens so quickly, there’s nothing to do.

It’s only natural,

but why did it have to be me?

I was so lonesome, I was blue,

I couldn’t help it, it had to be you,

and I always thought you knew the reason why.

I only wanted a little love affair,

now I can see you are beginning to care,

but baby, believe me,

it’s better to forget me.
