[Verse 1]
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 right
Then 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

[Chorus]
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 could a ben you

[Verse 2]
I 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 now
But 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

[Chorus]
Because when it comes to love
I should know better
When it comes to love
I take the blame
Because you are the one I should've held on to

[Chorus]
When 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

[Verse 3]
Ah, it could a been you
Making a change in my heart
Finding a new place to start
Wondering what I can do
Will I ever get over you... no

[Chorus][x2]

The name of the band Foreigner was chosen because half of the original members were from England, and the other half from the U.S. The group had quite a few people join and leave, but one of the originals, Mick Jones, (not Mick Jagger) stayed the whole time. Foreigner celebrated their 40th anniversary in 2017, with Mick still there.
