I did my best
But I gue ss my best wasn't good enough
Cause here we are
Back whe re we were befor e
Seems nothin' ever changes
We're back to being stran gers
Wondering if we ought to stay
Or head on out the door
Just once...
Can't we figure out what we keep doin' wrong
Why we never last for very lon g
What are we doin' wrong
Just once...
Can't we find a way to finall y make it right
To make the magic last for more than ju st one night
If we could just get to it
I know we could break through it
(Hmm hmmmm)
I gave my all
But I thi nk my all may have been too much
Cause Lord knows we're not gettin' anywhe re
Seems we're always blowin'
Whatever we've got goi n'
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 kee p doin' wrong
Why the good times never last for lon g
Where are we goin' wrong
Just once...
Can't we find a way to finally make it right
To make the magic last for more than ju st 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
G#
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
Fin d a way to stay together
Just once.....
Can't we find a way to finally make it right (Whoa)
Mak e the magic last for more than just one night
I kn ow we could break through it
If we c ould just get to it
Just Once.....
Whoa oh, w e can get to it
Just Once.....
