01 Just Once Songtext
von Gary Valenciano

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 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
It seems we′re always blowing, whatever we′ve 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 very long
What are we doing wrong?

Just once, can we find a way to finally make it right?
And make the magic last for more than just one night
If we could just get to it, I know we could break through it just once

I want to understand
Why it always comes back to goodbyes?
Why can't we give ourselves a hand?
Empty hand on one another
We′re no good without each other
To make 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, 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

We could get to it just once
Just once
