作词 : Barry Mann/Cynthia Well Mann/Weil Songs Inc. 作曲 : Barry Mann/Cynthia Well Mann/Weil Songs Inc. I did my best But I guess, my best wasn't good enough 'Cause, here we are back where we were before Seems nothin' ever changes We're back to bein' strangers Wonderin' if, we ought to stay Or head on, out the door Just Once... Can we figure out, what we keep, doin' wrong Why, we never last for very long What are we doin' wrong? Just once... Can 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 hmm-hmm... (...) 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 goin' And it seems at times, with all we've got We haven't, got a prayer Just once... Can we figure out, what we keep doin' 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 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, to make it better Find a way, to stay together Just once... Can we find a way, to finally make it right (whoa!) 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... ...Whoa-ohh We can get through it... Just ...Once
