Motion City Soundtrack - It Had to Be You

I'll get lost, messed up and bored when I'm alone too long
I can't sleep, function or eat when I'm not with someone
Late last fall, she ended it all and moved to who-knows-where
Just like that, she vanished and packed and never even called

You feel a certain sense of synergy between yourself and me
A kind of macabre and somber Wonder-twin kind of harmony
What if it was you?
You that I needed all along
I felt like a fool,
Kicking and screaming and pretending we were wrong

Let's get wrecked on pop tarts and sex and see the Taj Mahal
Let's save birds from Prince William Sound and skateboard through the mall
Let's fight crime with mangoes and limes and join the PGA
Let's win big with every spin but hurry, I can't wait

Do you spend a fortune on those late-night prepaid television scams
In search of the perfect blend of steak knife and non-stick frying pan?
What if it was you?
You that I needed all along
I felt like a fool
Thinking we were completely wrong
It seemed like a dream
A beautiful screen
That echoed forever
And made us not afraid to feel a thing

And after it ends
We'll try to be friends
They say that what doesn't kill us makes us who we are

All this time and everything's changed but I still feel the same
All good things eventually end and get washed down the drain
What a disaster it would be if you discovered that I cared
A little too much for friends but not enough to share

What if it was you?
You that I needed all along
I felt like a fool
Now that I'm sure that I was wrong
It had to be you.
It had to be you.
It had to be you.
I knew it was you.

  • story of my life <3

  • i worry that this song might be perfectly applicable to my relationship with this girl i know. i'm terrified actually.

    it's a great song in a haunting kind of way.

  • @sensesfail10792 well do some resersh on the comment see if he got it off of something

  • Love finding old songs that speak to my heart.

  • old song I used to listen to. :) I love this band SO much.

  • @Skilp14 Well if she looks at your screen, or knows your username... then she knows now. Take your fake, attention whoring comments elsewhere.

  • @Skilp14 I feel you, dude...but, trust me, tell her. Face to face, like you mean it. If it's meant to be, it'll happen. All the best.

  • @Beatleableify this sounds to me like lyrical bullshit

  • fuck this

  • Story of my life. I met a girl had feelings for, didn't act on the feelings. Time past, we grew a little older, i fall in love and she has someone. The crowd sings and I mock them all.
