We Can Work It Out

About We Can Work It Out

"We Can Work It Out" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles, written by Paul McCartney and John Lennon. It was first issued as a double A-side single with "Day Tripper" in December 1965. The release marked the first time in Britain that both tracks on an artist's single were promoted as joint A-sides. The song was recorded during the sessions for the band's Rubber Soul album. The single was number 1 in Britain (where it won the Ivor Novello Award for the top-selling A-side of 1965), America, Australia, Canada and Ireland. "We Can Work It Out" is a comparatively rare example of a Lennon–McCartney collaboration from this period in the Beatles' career, in that it recalls the level of collaboration the two songwriters had shared when writing the group's hit singles of 1963. This song, "A Day in the Life", "Baby, You're a Rich Man" and "I've Got a Feeling", are among the notable exceptions. more »

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 or 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 all right
 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 of I am right or I am wrong
 While you see it your
 There's a chance 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

 Think of what you're saying
 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 and get it straight or say good night
 We can work it out
 We can work it out
