Just Once - Peppi Kamadhatu

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've got going

And seems at times

With all we've got

We haven't got a player

Just once

Can't we figure out

What we keep doing wrong

Why the good times

Never last for 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

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

But we're no good without the 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 can break through it

If we could just get to it

Just once
