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.

 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 prayer

 Just once can‘t we figure out what we keep doing wrong?
 Why the good times never last for very long?
 Seems were always blowing
 Whatever we got going
 Just once cant we find a way to finally make it right
 Make the magic last for more than just one night
 If we could just get to it
 I know we could break through it
 Just once I want to understand
 Why it always come back to good-bye
 Why cant we get ourselves in hand
 And admit to one another
 That were no good with out the other
 Take the best and make it better
 Find a way to stay together
 Just once cant we find a way to finally make it right
 Make the magic last for more than just one night
 I know we can break through it
 If we could just get to it
 Just once
 If we could get to it
 Just Once...
