"HAD TO BE YOU"

Verse 1
Used to cover up my need for love,
'Cause I couldn’t stand to be hurt again
In a world where love is hard to find
And easy to lose in the end.

Verse 2
I realized I needed much more,
It came simpler than what I was used to.
You reached down to my very soul,
I knew it would only be You.

Chorus
'Cause I could try, but there’s nowhere to hide.
You see the feelings I’m holding inside.
You know every need of mine.
You’re there for me each time.

Verse 3
Walking in a brand new light,
Seeing new things I have never seen before.
You gave me a better life
Than what used to be a dream

Chorus 2
Nothing could ever com pare.
Your arms can reach everywhere;
And everything that’s perfect & true
Can only come from You.

Only You, had to be You, oooh,
Only You, had to be You, only You.

Verse 4
Don’t need to look any more, [Look any more]
I’ve found the truth in finding You.
And when I’m no so confident,
You show me what to do.

Repeat Chorus 1

Only You had to be You.
Only You, had to be You, only You.

Bridge
Never wanna leave You, Lord,
This is where I belong. Yeah,
I just wanna keep You
Always close to my heart.

Ending
Only You, had to be You. [Repeat]

C#m

Only You, had to be You. [Repeat four times]
