My Week in a Song for Week #21 - IT HAD TO BE YOU

May 30, 2015, 08:46 PM

IT HAD TO BE YOU words by Gus Kahn to music by Isham Jones is DEDICATED TO MY MOM.

Mommy came to me so strong while learning this on Sunny that one of the lyrics morphed in to "Some mothers I've seen" vs the lyric which was written "Some others..."

"Some Mothers I've seen Might never be mean Might never be cross Or try to be boss But they wouldn't do

For nobody else gave me a thrill For all your faults I love you still It had to be you Wonderful you It had to be you."

If you ever saw us together I think this song might touch you. If you didn't get to meet my momma; Well, I wish that you had.

She was one heck of a wonderful, beautiful, talented, brave woman.
