QUINCY JONES lyrics : "Just Once"

(feat. James Ingram)

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 got going
And seems at times with all we've got
We haven't got a prayer

Just once can't we figure out what we keep doing wrong
Why the goodtimes never last for very long
Seems we're always blowing

Whatever we got going

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


Just once I want to understand
Why it always come back to good-bye

Why can't we get ourselves in hand
And admit to one another
That we're no good with out 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

If we could get to it

Just Once...
