Work It Out
R.Troutman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm sure we'll work it out
I'm sure I'll see you later
I'm sure we'll work it on out
I'm sure I'll see you see you

I'm feeling distant
You're always so calculated
Don't say you're sorry
I'm just feeling isolated
I've got my problems
You've got your places
And I won't dare resolve them
Inside your sacred spaces

I'm feeling distant
You're always so calculated
Don't say you're sorry
I'm just feeling isolated
I've got my problems
You've got your places
And I won't dare resolve them
Inside your sacred spaces

I'm sure we'll work it out
I'm sure I'll see you later
I'm sure we'll work it on out
I'm sure I'll see you later
I'm sure this won't come crashing on down
I'm sure I'll see you later
I'm sure we'll work it on out
I'm sure I'll see you see you

My heart skips a few
At the memory of you
My pulse goes off beat
When I think of you touching me
I want you so bad
Can't you give me something
We go in circles
You fill me up then leave me starving

My heart skips a few
At the memory of you
My pulse goes off beat
When I think of you touching me
I want you so bad
Can't you give me something
We go in circles
You fill me up then leave me starving

I'm sure we'll work it out
I'm sure I'll see you later
I'm sure we'll work it on out
I'm sure I'll see you later
I'm sure this won't come crashing on down
I'm sure I'll see you later
I'm sure we'll work it on out
I'm sure I'll see you see you

I'm sure we'll work it out
I'm sure I'll see you later




I'm sure we'll work it on out
I'm sure I'll see you later
