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'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

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...Ohhhh

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.....

Ohhhh, we can get to it
