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 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 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 It seems we're always blowing, whatever we've 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 very long What are we doing wrong? Just once, can we find a way to finally make it right? And make the magic last for more than just one night If we could just get to it, I know we could break through it just once I want to understand Why it always comes back to goodbyes? Why can't we give ourselves a hand? Empty hand on one another We're no good without each other To make the best to 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 We could get to it just once Just once
