Had It All

I've been listening to Kat Mcphee's "Had It All" for more than a day now. Its just that this is my song right now. I think I'm gonna save everyone the explanation, I've been crying out loud a lot lately. Hahah! The break up was like a million years ago already, but me not being able to talk about it with friends just tell me one thing. Well, add the fact that I was not able to court anybody after her. I was thinking that she raised the bars too high, or is it just that I am not yet over her. Shit! There! I let it out right there again, haha! But dig into the song, Katharine Mcphee owned the song a lot. She really sounds good with ballads that have a bluesy feel. Here is the lyrics too, just so you could sing along. Enjoy!




Why'd I have to go and be a fool again

Why'd I have to go and make a big thing out of nothing
I didn't know what I had 'til you were gone
It was right in front of me all along
And now those days of "same old story"
Are feeling more like faded glory

Had it all, I threw it all aside

Thinkin' there was more out there I needed to find
I had it all baby
'Til you went away
Blue skies, sunshine, and butterflies
Those were the conditions that I left behind
Why did I let it go to waste
I had it all

Where are all the fireworks I thought I'd see
I still haven't found the magic I was lookin' for that made me leave, no no
I traded in my comfort zone
For empty nights of bein' alone

I had it all, I threw it all aside
Thinkin' there was more out there I needed to find
I had it all baby
'Til you went away
Blue skies, sunshine, and butterflies
Those were the conditions that I left behind
Why did I let it go to waste
I had it all

Why did I believe that little voice that led me down the path to this bad choice

Why don't I listen to the angels when they sing
(I changed up this line and said: "Why don't I listen to my heart, when it says 'stay'", instead. It was a better "fit" in my mind.)

I had it all, I threw it all aside
Thinkin' there was more out there I needed to find
I had it all baby
'Til you went away
Blue skies, sunshine, and butterflies
Those were the conditions that I left behind
Why did I let it go to waste
I had it all
