Just Once

I did my best But I guess my best wasn't good enough 'Cause here we are back where we were before Seems nothing ever changes We're back to being strangers Wondering if we oughta stay Or head on out the door Just once Can we figure out what we keep doing wrong? Why we never last for very long What are we doing wrong? Just once Can we find a way to finally make it right? To make the magic last for more than just one night We could just get to it I know we could break through it I gave my all But I think my all may have been too much Lord knows we're not getting anywhere Seems we're always blowing Whatever we got going And it seems at times with all we've got We haven't got a prayer Just once Can we figure out what we keep doing wrong? Why the good times never last for long Where are we going wrong? Just once Can we find a way to finally make it right? To make the magic last for more than just one night I know we could break through it If we could just get to it just once I want to understand Why it always come back to goodbye Why can't we get ourselves in hand? And admit to one another We're no good without each other Take the best and make it better Find a way to stay together Just once Can we find a way to finally make it right? Whoa To make the magic last for more than just one night I know we could break through it If we could just get to it just once We could get to it Just once
