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'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 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't we figure out
what we keep doing wrong?
Why the good times never last for long?
What are we going 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
Just once
can't we find a way
to finally make it right?
Ohh..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
oohh... we can get through.. it
just.. once
