It had to be you, yes, it had to be you
I've traveled around, finally found somebody who
Could make me be true, could make me feel blue
Could make me 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, they wouldn't do
For nobody else gives me a thrill
With all your faults I love you still
It had to be you, wonderful you, it had to be you

Yes, it had to be you, it had to be you
I've traveled around then I finally found somebody who
Could make me be true or could make me feel blue
Could make be glad just to be sad thinking of you

Some other I've seen might never be mean
Might never be cross or try to be boss but they ain't gonna do
For nobody else gives me a thrill
You got your faults but I love you still
It had to be you, wonderful you, it had to be you
