Mama Cass Elliot �
'When It Doesn�t Work Out' lyrics

Oh, I tried to stay away from you
Isn�t that what you wanted me to do?
I would call the friends we knew to see how you were
Then I found out about her

Yes, I heard about that stormy love affair
When she didn�t need you, you were there
She laughed about your loyalty
You took it to your heart
Then like me, you fell apart
Isn�t love terrible when it doesn�t work out?

Oh, I�m sad to see your troubled face
Knowing that no one can take her place
And you�re still in love with her
Well, I�m in love with you
So I guess there�s nothing we can do
Isn�t love terrible when it doesn�t work out?

And you�re still in love with her
Well, I�m in love with you
So I guess there�s nothing we can do
