[Verse 1]
We feel the rising sun release the day to us
The dreamers
We seize it in our hands and burn ourselves
We know no better

[Chorus]
Don't take me back if you don't want to
Don't take me back
I said, don't take me back if you don't want to
I won't come home
I won't come home
Don't take me back if you don't want to

[Verse 2]
We felt the sun beat down the day
We gave ourselves to each other
Your heart broke like the dawn
But I was blind to see the sunlight

[Chorus]
Don't take me back if you don't want to
Don't take me back
I said, don't take me back if you don't want to
I won't come home
I won't come home
Don't take me back if you don't want to
[Bridge]
Ooooooooh, woaaaahhh
Lover, won't you let me come home
I never had a home, before

[Verse 3]
Your eyes broke like the dawn
When you opened them for me, that September
Then you gave yourself to me
It was like I had died
It was like the first time
It was nothing like the first time

[Chorus]
Don't take me back if you don't want to
I said, don't take me back
Oh, don't take me back if you don't want to
I won't come home
I won't come home
Don't take me back if you don't want to
Don't take me back if you don't want to
Don't take me back
I said, don't take me back if you don't want to
I won't come home
I won't come home
Don't take me back if you don't want to
[Outro]
Your heart broke like the dawn
But I was blind to see the sunlight
