I asked her to stay But she wouldn't listen And she left before I had the chance to say, oh The words that would mend The things that were broken But now it's far too late; she's gone away 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 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 The taste of her breath I'll never get over The noises that you made kept me awake Oh The weight of the things that remained unspoken Built up so much it crushed us everyday 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 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 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 Of all the things I felt but never really shown Perhaps the worst is that I ever let you go I should not ever let you go, oh, 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 Oh, 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 And I won't go home without you And I won't go home without you And I won't go home without you
