We Won’t Be Making Up Tonight Lyrics

Our hearts and our brains
And your favorite china plates
Are broken on the floor

There’s nothing left to say
And I’ll be on my way
I’m already out the door

I don’t wanna call you and apologize
Cause I still think that I was right
Don’t look at me that way
We won’t be making up tonight

The stars and moon
And this picture of you
Makes me miss you even more

If I could just go back in time
Change what we said
I’d go crawlin on the floor

I don’t wanna call you and apologize
Cause I still think that I was right
If I keep thinking this way
We won’t be making up tonight

We won’t be making up tonight

I don’t wanna call you and apologize
Cause I still think that I was right
IF I keep thinking this way
We won’t be making up tonight
Oh yeah

You’re so angry
And I’m so stubborn
Not tonight
Not tonight

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

It's about getting into a fight with the person you love, a fight that doesn't just break hearts but that kind that breaks "china plates" too. Clearly the couple wasn't just having a little spat. This was a major fight--one where you feel like you're right, and they feel like they're right, so neither one wants to give in. Despite all of this, I think the song offers some hope for the future. The last chorus lines, "If I keep thinking this way/ We won't be making up tonight," lead me to believe that the guy wants to work things out and makeup with the girl he loves. Just that wanting, that desire, makes me feel like there's a chance things will work out for the two. Love works both ways though; she's gotta want it too. Wow, I feel like I know the couple in this song, and I want to know what happens to them. Maybe there will be a sequel someday?

right on the nose as always, and the sequel will probbably involve a hot night of making up b/c everyone knows the guy will eventually give in as always
