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 oughta 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
if we could
Just get to it
I know we could
Break through it
um~
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 seems
at times with all
We've got we heaven't
got a prayer
Just once
can't we figure out
What we keep
doing wrong
Why the good times
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
come back to good~bye
Why can't we get
ourselves in hand
And admit
to one another
That we're no good
with our the 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
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 could get to it
just once~
