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.

~ The Beatles, We Can Work It Out
