Oh, oh
Oh, oh....
Yeah
You understand me. At least, you say you do. Lately that's enough for me.
Looking for perfect. Surrounded by artificial. You're the closest thing to real I see.
Sure, everyone has their problems. That's a given. Yours are the easiest to tolerate.
This isn't what we were wanting, how we're living, but let's take this "good enough" and turn it to "great".
Baby understand:
This can only be as good as we both make it. Yeah, sometimes it's gonna hurt. (yeah, sometimes it's gonna hurt)
We can be as happy as we want to, baby girl, but we gotta make it work.
We gotta make it work. (ayo ayo-oh)
We gotta make it work. (ayo ayo-oh)
We gotta make it work. (ayo ayo-oh)
We gotta make it work. (ayo ayo-oh)
Sometimes I love you more that you'll ever know. Other times, you get on my nerves.
Hey, that's just reality. No, it can't always be kisses, hugs, and beautiful words.
You were looking for your prince. What you found is a pauper with potential.
And no, I'm nowhere near perfect, but I'm around. Girl, time and patience is essential.
Baby realize:
This can only be as good as we both make it. Yeah, sometimes it's gonna hurt. (yeah, sometimes it's gonna hurt)
We can be as happy as we want to, baby girl, but we gotta make it work.
We gotta make it work. (ayo ayo-oh)
We gotta make it work. (ayo ayo-oh)
We gotta make it work. (ayo ayo-oh)
We gotta make it work. (ayo ayo-oh)
Thick and thin: the bad outweighs the good sometimes.
That doesn't mean we're supposed to give it up.
My problems are yours, and yours are mine. Oh yeah
This can only be as good as we both make it. Yeah, sometimes it's gonna hurt. (yeah, sometimes it's gonna hurt)
We can be as happy as we want to, baby girl, but we gotta make it work.
We gotta make it work. (ayo ayo-oh)
We gotta make it work. (ayo ayo-oh)
We gotta make it work. (ayo ayo-oh)
We gotta make it work. (ayo ayo-oh)
Oh-oh ooooooo
