I Guess You Had To Be There
Composer(s): Jon Robbin; Barbara Cloyd

Hello, Honey, how was your day 
Well, You're sure in a good mood tonight 
Oh, by the way, I was downtown this afternoon 
And I saw the most amazing sight 
Through the window of a small cafe 
I saw a man and a woman holdin' hands 
And they looked so much in love it took my breath away 
Can't you see it, Don't you understand?

Well, I guess you had to be there 
Yeah, you really had to be there 
Some things you just can't explain 
It's just not the same 
I guess you had to be there 

I just stood there my heart poundin' 
I couldn't move, all I could was stare 
I kept rememberin' when we used to look like that 
Two people with so much to share 
They were talkin' and they were laughin' 
Just like we used to do every day 
And then he kissed her so tenderly 
What's the matter, You don't have much to say

And as I watched you with your new love 
I haven't seen you that happy in years 
We've drifted so far apart and it's hard to admit it 
But there's nothin' left for you here (so I guess)

Well, I guess you had to be there 
Yeah, you really had to be there 
Some things you just can't explain 
It's just not the same 
I guess you had to be there
