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~
