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
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 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
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 goodbyes
Why can't we give ourselves a 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
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 Oh we can get to it Just once
