Artist/Band: Burton Cummings
Lyrics for Song: Had To Be You
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Burton Cummings



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
