I remember the day seems so far away
When I walked into your life
And the look in your eyes, how it took you by surprise
But it felt so rightThen I drew you in, told you anything
'Cause I wanted you so bad
Girl, I led you on, said, "There's nothing wrong
In giving your heart to me"But when it comes to love, I should know better
When it comes to love I take the blame
'Cause you are the one I should've held on to
Yeah, it coulda been youI never realized how time was on my side
Lost sight of my perfect world
And the man that I've become from the damage that I've done
It's so clear to me nowBut I wished that I never was the kind
To steal a lonely heart
And I didn't see how good you were for me
Now it's too late to go back'Cause when it comes to love, I should know better
When it comes to love, I take the blame
'Cause you are the one I should've held on toWhen it comes to love, girl, I can't help it
When it comes to love, I always lose my way
And you are the one I should've held on to
Ah, it coulda been youMaking a change in my heart
Finding a new place to start
Wondering what I can do
Will I ever get over you? NoWhen it comes to love, I should know better
When it comes to love, I take the blame
'Cause you are the one I should've held on toWhen it comes to love, girl, I can't help it
When it comes to love, I always lose my way
And you are the one I should've held on to
Ah, it could've been you
