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 ought to stay or head on out for door Just once Can't we figure out what we keep doing wrong Why we never last for very long What are we doing wrong Just once Can't we find a way to finally make it right To make the magic last for more than just one night If 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 'Cause Lord knows we're not getting anywhere Seems we're always blowin' Whatever we've got going And it seems at times with all we've got We haven't got a prayer Just once Can't we figure out what we keep doin' wrong Why the good times never last for long What are we Doing wrong Just once Can't 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 comes 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 * * repeat Wow We can get to it Just once
