Try to see it my way, 
Do I have to keep on 
Talking till I can't go on?
While you see it your way, 
Run the risk of
Knowing that our 
Love may soon be gone

We can work it out, 
We can work it out

Think of what you're saying
You can get it wrong and still
You think that it's alright
Think of what I'm saying, 
We can work it out and get it
Straight, or say good night

We can work it out, 
We can work it out 
Life is very short, 
And there's no time
For fussing and fighting, 
My friend
I have always thought that it's a crime, 
So I will ask you once again

Try to see it my way, 
Only time will tell if I am right
Or I am wrong
While you see it your way
There's a chance that we 
Might fall apart
Before too long

We can work it out, 
We can work it out 
Life is very short, 
And there's no time
For fussing and fighting, 
My friend
I have always thought that it's a crime, 
So I will ask you once again

Try to see it may way, 
Try to see it my way, 
Only time will tell if I am right
Or I am wrong

While you see it your way
There's a chance that we
Might fall apart
Before too long

We can work it out, 
We can work it out
