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 ?
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 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
