Just Once - Quincy Jones

Just Once (Album Version) - Quincy Jones
//
I did my best but I guess my best wasn't good enough
我尽力而为 但我觉得还是无能为力
'Cause here we are back where we were before
因为我们回到了我们最初的地方
Seems nothing ever changes we're back to being strangers
似乎一切都是旧日模样 而我们却彼此陌路
Wondering if we oughta stay or head on out the door
想着我们该何去何从
Just once can't we figure out what we keep doing wrong
我们不知道到底是哪里出了错
Why we never last for very long What are we doing wrong
为什么我们不能天长地久 是哪里出了错
Just once can't we find a way to finally make it right
我们能不能让一切回到正轨
To make the magic last for more than just one night
让这魔法永不消失
If we could just get to it I know we could break through it
如果我们可以找到办法 我知道我们可以打破僵局
I gave my all but I think my all may have been too much
我倾我所有 但我觉得可能太过用力
'Cause Lord knows we're not getting anywhere
因为上帝知道我们什么都做不到
Seems we're always blowing whatever we've got going
似乎我们总是一事无成
And it seems at times with all we've got we haven't got a prayer
有时我们似乎拥有了一切 却没有祷告
Just once can't we figure out what we keep doing wrong
我们不知道到底是哪里出了错
Why the good times never last for long Where are we going wrong
为什么我们不能天长地久 是哪里出了错
Just once can't we find a way to finally make it right
我们能不能让一切回到正轨
To make the magic last for more than just one night
让这魔法永不消失
I know we could break through it if we could just get to it just once
如果我们可以找到办法 我知道我们可以打破僵局
I want to understand
我无法理解
Why it always comes back to good-bye
为什么我们只能别离
Why can't we get ourselves in hand
为什么我们无法控制自己
And admit to one another we're no good without the other
承认吧我们不能没有彼此
Take the best and make it better find a way to stay together
找到办法 让我们可以一生一世
Just once can't we find a way to finally make it right
我们能不能让一切回到正轨
Oh make the magic last for more than just one night
让这魔法永不消失
I know we could break through it if we could just get to it
如果我们可以找到办法 我知道我们可以打破僵局
Just once
仅此一次
Oh we can get to it
如果我们可以找到办法
Just once
仅此一次
仅
