We Can Work It Out, But I Should Have Known Better

How do we end this fight?
When you're side of right
I try to keep my cool
When I'm burning high

Know I made it hard, on the rooftop bar
Another double drink, another movie star
Tried to cut me loose, but the grip was tight
When you met me there after midnight

And we can work it out
We can work it out
We can work it out
But I should have known better

Every time I try to make space in my life, something'll rise
Tried to come from the shadows into the light
Why does it take so long?

Can't remember now, living in that town
Tossing out these things that I've kept around
I was never strong enough
It was never black or white
You were a shooting star
I was a satellite

We can work it out
But I should have known better
We can work it out
We can work it out
We can work it out
But I should have known better
We can work it out
