Just Once歌词

Quincy Jones and JamesIngram

I did my best
But i guess my best wasn't good enough
'Cause here me 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 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 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 got going
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 doing wrong
Why the good times never last for long
What are we doing wrong
Just once
Can 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 give ourselves a 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 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
Oh we can get to it
Just once
