Lyrics

[Chorus]

Baby, can we work this out?

Let's try again

Baby, can we work this out?

Let's try again

[Verse 1]

I, all I ever did was try to be around

Around to pick you up when you are feeling down

That's why I'm here, so can we work this out?

Aye, aye

[Chorus]

Baby, can we work this out?

Let's try again

Can't you see I wanna be your friend?

Baby, can we work this out?

Let's try again

Can't you see I wanna be your friend?

[Verse 2]

I know, I thought we'd always be the best of friends

And those precious thoughts in me will never end

And if we try, we can do it all again

All again

[Chorus]

Baby, can we work this out?

Let's try again

Can't you see I wanna be your friend?

Baby, can we work this out?

Let's try again

Can't you see I wanna be your friend?

[Refrain]

Baby, baby

Baby

[Chorus]

Baby, can we work this out?

Let's try again

Can't you see I wanna be your friend?

Baby, can we work this out?

Let's try again

Can't you see I wanna be your friend?

[Chorus]

Baby, can we work this out?

Let's try again

Baby, can we work this out?

Let's try again

[Chorus]

Baby, can we work this out?

Let's try again

Can't you see I wanna be your friend?

Baby, can we work this out?

Let's try again

Can't you see I wanna be your friend?

[Chorus]

Baby, can we work this out?

Let's try again

Can't you see I wanna be your friend?

Baby, can we work this out?

Let's try again

Can't you see I wanna be your friend?
