James Ingram - 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 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
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 got going
And 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
goin' wrong
Just once
can't we find a way
to finally
make it right
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 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
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
We can get to it
Just once
But I guess my best
