When It Comes To Love

I fought so long for our potential
I kept trying and trying
Even when I knew it was obvious
I was so wrong
When I thought we were special
And even if I held on or finally let go
It's gonna hurt no matter what
Ooh
We came so close
But almost, almost just ain't enough
Ooh
I don't wanna let go
I don't, but I know
Sometimes you have to
When it comes to love
It feels like, yeah, it feels like I'm crawling through hell
But do me a favor
Spare me all those cliches
The one thing I know
Is I gotta let me soul weep and wail
And maybe I, yeah just maybe I
Can just sing my pain away
Ooh
We came so close
But almost, almost just ain't enough
Ooh
I don't wanna let go
I don't, but I know
Sometimes you have to
When it comes to love
(Ooh's)
Ooh
We came so close
But almost, almost just ain't enough
Ooh
I don't wanna let go
I don't, but I know
Sometimes you have to
When it comes to love
