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 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
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 good-bye
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 through it
If we could just get to it, just once

We can get to it
Just once
