The following are lyrics to It Had to Be You. The song was written by Isham Jones in 1924.
It seems like dreams like I’ve 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
Someday, someway, maybe you’ll come and say
It’s you that I need
And you’ll be pleading in vain
It had to be you
It had to be you
I wondered around,
Finally found that’s 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 still wouldn’t do
For nobody else give me a thrill
With all your faults I love you still
It had to be you, wonderful you,
It had to be you
Some others I’ve seen
Might never be mean,
Might never be mean,
Might never be cross,
Or try to be boss,
They wouldn’t do
For nobody else give me a thrill
With all your faults I love you still
It had to be you,
Wonderful you,
It had to be you
