Just once　　　　　　　　James Ingra

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 be strangers

Wondering if we ought to stay or head on out the door

Just once

Can we figure out what we keep 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 pray

Just once

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

Why the good times never last for long

Where 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 ?

Oh, to make magic last for more than just one night

I know we could break through it

If we could just get to it, just once

Woh! we can get to it, just once
