Katharine McPhee is one of America’s most talented singers, who became famous thanks to her participation in the American Idol competition. Her lyrics are very intense and in her songs she writes about feelings that every single person experiments. Here are the lyrics of Had It All, one of her biggest hits.

[Verse 1:]

Why’d I have to go and be a fool again
Why’d I have to go and make a big thing outta 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 feelin’ more like faded glory

[Chorus:]

I had it all
I threw it all aside
Thinkin’ there was more 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

[Verse 2:]

So 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
Oh, no
I traded in my comfort zone
For empty nights of bein’ alone

[Chorus:]

I had it all
I threw it all aside
Thinkin’ there was more 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

[Bridge:]

Why did I believe that a little voice
That led me down the path to this bad choice
Why don’t I listen to the angels
When they sing, oh yeah, they sing
Oh yeah oh

[Chorus:]

I had it all
I threw it all aside
Thinkin’ there was more 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 let it go to waste
I had it all
Why’d I have to go and be a fool again
