We can only work this out
If we run into the arms of strangers
We can always work it out
Or maybe never at all
I have been so left alone
And fallen to the arms of strangers
I think you might understand
Or maybe you don't at all
I've tried so hard to be someone
As I've tried so hard to explain
If we can't be someone together
Then we'll do it again

We can only work this out
If we run into the arms of strangers
We will do the best we can
Or maybe nothing at all
I have offered so much trust
By comforting the lives of strangers
I think that it all adds up
Or maybe it doesn't at all
I've tried so hard to be someone
And I've tried so hard to sustain
I think we're growing apart love
And I won't do it again

We can only work this out
If we run into the arms of strangers
We can always work it out
Or maybe never at all
I have been so left alone
And fallen to the arms of strangers
I think you might understand
Or maybe you don't at all

I've tried so hard to be someone
As I've tried so hard to explain
If we can't be someone together
Then we'll do it again
I've tried so hard to be someone
As I've tried so hard to explain
If we can't be someone together
Then we'll do it again
