Had to Be You

Couldn't be a fancy dancing girl and it couldn't be an "also-ran" Couldn't be my mother cryin' softly after hearing from my old man Couldn't be the guitar player wailin' even though I really liked the band Had to be you Had to be you Couldn't be the nights with the drinkin' crowd when it was too late to be too young Couldn't be the nights with the early flights when every mornin' meant time to run Old men just never talkin' about it, always sayin' I was much too young Had to be you Had to be you What you gonna do if you ever find out we're wrong... Just come crashin' down like thunder There's a danger sign that says we've had too much too long... You go rollin' like a landslide Lady luck will be cryin' And if I ain't dead you know I'm gonna be dyin... Couldn't be the days with the guitar craze when I never knew right from wrong Couldn't be my friend behind the bar who kept it open just a little too long Like a hundred other magic moments darlin', when your're there to find another song Had to be you Had to be you Couldn't be the real-life movie night when I stole one teenage kiss Couldn't even match stayin' out all night when the mornin' smelled just like this Couldn't be something that I'd forgotten, because I can reminisce Had to be you Had to be you
