I woke up at midday
Despite a case of chest pain
The bed became and island
The carpet was the sea
And James was using Cobain
To try and keep his head straight
I found him on the sofa
His eyes, a vacant grey
I think we need to work it out, work it out
Oh, we all need a little love sometimes
I think we better shake it down, shake it down
We all need love, we gonna work this out
Well I was hoping someday
You’d try to find your own way
Walk past me on the pavement
You wouldn’t know my name
And you’ll be staying up late
To try and get your dreams made
I heard you singing lullabies
You never learned the words
I think we need to work it out, work it out
Oh, we all need a little love sometimes
I think we better shake it down, shake it down
We all need love, we gonna work this out
You said, what a fool I’ve been lately
I don’t know nothing
'Bout the way these things
Gro-o-o-o-o-w
You’re so insecure
Won’t you tie yourself down
Oh, you put a bullet in the gun and fired
You put a bullet in the gun and fired right through me
Work it out, Work it out
Oh we all need a little love sometimes
I think we better shake it down, shake it down
We all need love, we gonna work this out
You let me down
But we’ll get through this
You let me down now
But you can heal this
You let me down
But we’ll get through this
You let me down now
But you can heal this
You let me down
You let me down
You let me down now
Work it out
