Quincy Jones - Just Once (Feat. James Ingram)

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 ought to stay
Or head on out for 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 thru 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 blowin'
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 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 thru 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
To make the magic last for
more than just one night
I know we could break thru it
If we could just get to it
Just once Wow
We can get to it
Just once
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 ought to stay
Or head on out for 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 thru 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 blowin'
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 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 thru 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
To make the magic last for
more than just one night
I know we could break thru it
If we could just get to it
Just once Wow
We can get to it
Just once
