Why Did You You Have To Be ...



When I held you, it was something 
That was nothing much to me 
I was in it for the moment 
Wanted someone touching me 
And I didn't want to fall in love 
(Chorus:) 
So why did you have to be 
So beautiful, so good to me 
When I was only looking for 
Someone to hold just for a while? 
Why did I have to see your smile? 
Why did you have to be 
The one who stayed in all my dreams 
When I was needing nothing more 


Than someone to kiss, to hold in the night? 
Why did you have to be so right? 
When you touched me, it was something 
Like your touch that I hadn't known 
I could feel it in a moment 
Like your touch had, baby, touched my soul 
And I didn't want to fall in love 
(Repeat chorus) 
(Bridge:) 
Why did you have to say 
The words that took my breath away? 
I was doing good, I was doing just fine 
Being free 
(Repeat chorus) 
Oh, baby, oh 
So beautiful 
Why?

I'm almost over you



I saw an old friend of ours today
She asked about you, I didn't quite know what to say
Heard you've been making your rounds 'round here
While I've been trying to make tears disappear

Chorus:
Now I'm almost over you, I've almost shook these blues
So when you come back around after painting the town
You'll see I'm almost over you

You're such a sly one with your cold, cold heart
Maybe leavin' came easy, but it tore me apart
Time heals all wounds they say and I should know
'Cause it seems like forever, but I'm lettin' you go

chorus

I can forgive you and soon I'll forget all my shattered dreams
Although you left me with nothing to show, full of misery

chorus

When you come back around after painting the town
You'll see I'm almost over you
