Melanie Dyer - Had To Be There

I could show ya in a polaroid 
I could play you all the songs we played 
I could tell you how the sunset faded 
Into one of them nights 

I could tell you how my heart beat skipped 
When he leaned in for the kiss
I could tell you everything you missed 
But words can't do it right 

You should've seen that night sky 
Dancing in that moonlight
We had the time of our lives 
Fireworks in the air 
Sweet summer dreaming 
Catching those feelings  
I could give a million reasons 
But I guess you had to be there 
Oh I guess you had to be there 

It's a shame that you didn't show up 
Maybe then it could've been us 
Now it's just a chance you lost 
Too late to get it back 
It's Too bad bout that because  

You should've seen that night sky 
Dancing in that moonlight
We had the time of our lives 
Fireworks in the air 
Sweet summer dreaming 
Catching those feelings  
I could give a million reasons 
But I guess you had to be there 
Oh I guess you had to be there 

If you Had your shot 
Made your move 
You woulda been there 
You would've had my heart 
That's the truth 
It's you that woulda been there 
Yeah you could've been there

You should've seen that night sky 
Dancing in that moonlight
We had the time of our lives 
love was in the air
Sweet summer dreaming 
Catching those feelings  
I could give a million reasons 
But It's too bad you weren't there 
So I guess you had to be there 

To even take your shot
To even make your move
Yeah you had to be there
You could've had my heart
Baby that's the truth
Yeah you had to be there"
