Please help explain what this beatles' lyric means
Hi, I am not an English speaker as a first language. I am interested in this song but I don't quite understand what it is talking about. I mean the implication. I've highlighted in color for those I don't understand very well. The Beatles - We can work it out. LyricsTry to see it my way,
Do I have to keep on talking till I can't go on?
While you see it your way,
Run the risk of knowing that our love may soon be gone
We can work it out,
We can work it outThink of what you're saying
You can get it wrong and still you think that it's alright
Think of what I'm saying,
We can work it out and get it straight, or say good night
We can work it out,
We can work it outLife is very short, and there's no time
For fussing and fighting, my friend
I have always thought that it's a crime,
So I will ask you once again
Try to see it my way,
Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
While you see it your way
There's a chance that we may fall apart before too long
We can work it out,
We can work it out
Do I have to keep on talking till I can't go on?
