I Guess You Had To Be There

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 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 do 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 Well, I guess you had to be there 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 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 you had to be there 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 guess you had to be there
