v.1
Try to see it my way
Do I have to keep on talkin' til I can't go on?
While you see it your way
Run the risk of knowin' that our love may soon be gone
We can work it out [2t]

v.2
Think of what you're sayin
You can get it wrong and still you think that it's all right
Think of what I'm saying
We can work it out an' get it straight or say goodnight
We can work it out [2t]

Refrain:
Life is very short, and there's no time
For fussing and fighting my friends
I have always thought that it's a crime
So I will ask you once again

v.3
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 [2t]
