The third track on Sometimes There's a Way is "When It Comes to Love"
"When It Comes to Love" is a song that encompasses the realism of how relationships aren’t perfect and sometimes end as well as the optimism that there is more love to experience. It’s very much a song about being hopeful even though things don’t ever seem to work out quite right. It might seem counter-intuitive to call this one of the happy songs I’ve written, but that is definitely how I see it. Society views relationships ending as a negative thing. Hence the having no luck in love aspect of the lyrics. When I wrote the song I had not had much luck in long term relationships. What I did have was plenty of wondering if a romantic interest would become more. Even after thinking I would never feel that way again, I would meet someone and feel that way again. Eventually I learned that relationships coming to an end could be a very good thing. Occasionally the end was better than the beginning. "When It Comes to Love" was a last minute addition to the album. It was one of the songs I recorded just because I had some extra time one day. Now I couldn’t imagine the album without it.
