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

Wond'ring if we ought to stay or head on out the door



Chorus:

Just once

Can we figure out

What we keep doin' wrong?

Why we never last for very long

What are we doing wrong?



Just once

Can't we find a way to fin'lly 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 thru 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 blowin'

Whatever we've got going

And it seems at times with all we've got

We haven't got a prayer



Chorus:

Just Once

Can't we figure out what we keep doin' wrong?

Why the good times never last for long?

Where are we going wrong?



Just once

Can't we find a way to fin'lly make it right?

To make the magic last more than just one night

I know we could break thru' it

If we could just get to it

Just Once

Ooh.. We can get to it..

Just Once...
