Hello honey how was your day well you're sure in a good mood tonight
          G7                                      C                    G7
Oh by the way I was downtown this afternoon and I saw the most amazing sight
            C           C7           F                     C       Dm
Through the window of a small cafe I saw a man and a woman holding hands
         G7
And they looked so much in love it took my breath away
          C                     G7
Can't you see it don't you understand

                        C            C7            F  Fm
Well I guess you had to be there you really had to be there
                           C                         G7
Some things you just can't explain it's just not the same
                   F      C   G7
I guess you had to be there

       C                    C7                  F
I just stood there my heart pounding I couldn't move all I could do was stare
       G7                                             C
I kept remembering when we used to look like that two people
                G7
With so much to share
          C                     C7            F                  C     Dm
They were talking and they were laughing just like we used to do every day
            G7                                C
And then he kissed her so tenderly what's the matter
                       G7
You don't have much to say

Repeat #2

And as I watched you with your new love
          C                            G7
I haven't seen you that happy in years
              F                     Am
We've drifted so far apart and it's hard to admit it
            Dm                   G7
But there's nothing left for you here

                      C            C7            F  Fm
So I guess you had to be there you really had to be there
                           C                         G7
Some things you just can't explain it's just not the same
                   F        G7
I guess you had to be there

                   F  Fm    Em Dm C
I guess you had to be there
