Lyrics Make It Work - Ne-Yo

Ooh uh ooh, ooh uh ooh, yeah, yeah, 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've seen
Sure, everyone has their problems
That's a given
Yours are the easiest to tolerate
This wasn't what we was 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
Guess sometimes it's gonna hurt (guess sometimes it's gonna hurt)
We can be as happy as we want to be, girl
But we gotta make it work
We gotta make it work

Ay oh, ay oh, oh
We gotta make it work
Ay oh, ay oh, oh
We gotta make it work
Ay oh, ay oh, oh
We gotta make it work
Ay oh, ay oh, oh

Sometimes I love you
More than 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 was looking for your prince
What you found (what you found)
Is a pauper with potential
And no, I'm nowhere near perfect (no)
But I'm around (but I'm around)
Girl, time and patience is essential
Baby, realize

This can only be as good as we both make it
Guess sometimes it's gonna hurt (guess sometimes it's gonna hurt)
We can be as happy as we want to be, girl
But we gotta make it work
We gotta make it work

Ay oh, ay oh, oh
We gotta make it work
Ay oh, ay oh, oh
We gotta make it work
Ay oh, ay oh, oh
We gotta make it work
Ay oh, ay oh, 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

This can only be as good as we both make it
Guess sometimes it's gonna hurt (guess sometimes it's gonna hurt)
We can be as happy as we want to be girl
But we gotta make it work
We gotta make it work

Ay oh, ay oh, oh
We gotta make it work
Ay oh, ay oh, oh
We gotta make it work
Ay oh, ay oh, oh
We gotta make it work
Ay oh, ay oh, oh
