Won’t Go Home Without You (Acoustic Version) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I asked her to stay, but she wouldn't listen
She left before I had the chance to say
Oh, oh
Words that would mend, yeah, the things that were broken
But now it's far too late; she's gone away

[Pre-Chorus]
Every night you cry yourself to sleep
Thinking, "Why does this happen to me?
Why does every moment have to be so hard?"
Hard to believe that

[Chorus]
It's not over tonight
Give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you

[Verse 2]
The taste of her breath, I'll never get over, yeah
The noises that she made, kept me awake, hey
The weight of things that remained unspoken
Built up so much, it crushed us every day

[Pre-Chorus]
Every night you cry yourself to sleep
Thinking, "Why does this happen to me?
Why does every moment have to be so hard?"
Hard to believe that
[Chorus]
It's not over tonight
Give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
It's not over tonight
Give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you
Oh

[Bridge]
Of all the things I felt but never really showed
Perhaps the worst is that I ever let you go
I should not ever let you go
Oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
It's not over tonight
Just give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you, babe
Oh, oh
It's not over tonight
Just give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you
[Outro]
And I won't go home without you
I won't go home without you
I won't go home without you, babe

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
