Benjamin Fro and Gita Buhari - Work It Out

Sound of rain on my window
I told her not to worry
All the gloomy poems I wrote
When she left me in a hurry
The pain, sometimes unbearable
And I keep forgetting who I am
But the feeling’s oh so memorable
I just wanna play pretend
No romantic hide-outs
No nights of sweaty love
I guess I saw it coming
But facing truth is hard

And I know what I’m supposed to do
And I tried to take it slow with you
But I lose my self control with you
You left me feeling so confused
Cause I don’t wanna get over you
But I know it’ll be over soon

I keep pretending that maybe we can work it out
(Maybe) we can work it out
Is this the ending? It’s all I ever think about
(Baby) when you’re not around

First, I was under the impression we were kind of in a mess
But we were making progress and we would work it out (work it out)
But now I’m second guessing cause I know it’s got you stressing
And it ain’t my happiness that you’re concerned about
You say you feel these feelings that you can’t describe
But I can hear it in your voice, see it in your eyes
Is it planned obsolescence, bad design?
Are we holding on to nothing like it’s pantomime?
I ain’t ready to accept that (nah), we don’t need to call it off it’s just a set-back (yeah)
Maybe we just need some rest, no calls and no texts
Maybe you just need some space and I respect that (yeah)
But I know that you’ll leave me, whatever the reason
So maybe next lifetime or maybe next season
Or maybe this weekend, just give it some thought
Are we taking a break or are you breaking my heart?

And I know what I’m supposed to do
And I tried to take it slow with you
But I lose my self control with you
(I just lose my self-control)
You left me feeling so confused
Cause I don’t wanna get over you
But I know it’ll be over soon

I keep pretending that maybe we can work it out
(Maybe) we can work it out
Is this the ending? It’s all I ever think about
(Baby) when you’re not around
I keep pretending that maybe we can work it out
(Maybe) we can work it out
Is this the ending? It’s all I ever think about
(Baby) when you’re not around
