Jonas Brothers: [ singing ]
“Well, here we are again
Throwing punchlines, no one wins
As the morning sun begins to rise, we’re fading fast
And we won’t work this out

No, we’re not gonna work this out tonight
(We won’t work this out)
No, we’re not gonna make this right
So I’ll give a kiss and say goodbye
(Give a kiss goodbye)
‘Cause we’re not gonna work this out
Tonight

Every single word’s been said (Whoa oh oh)
Broke each other’s hearts again (Oh whoa oh)
As the starlit sky begins to shine, we’re breaking down
She screams out

No, we’re not gonna work this out tonight
(We won’t work this out)
No, we’re not gonna make this right
So I’ll give a kiss and say goodbye
(Give a kiss goodbye)
‘Cause we’re not gonna work this out
Tonight

(Ohh, Ohh, Ohh, Ohh,)
We don’t have to fight
Tonight
(Ohh, Ohh, Ohh, Ohh,)
We just gotta try
Tonight
We don’t have to fight
Tonight
We just gotta try
TONIGHT

No, we’re not gonna work this out tonight
(We won’t work this out)
No, we’re not gonna make this right
So I’ll give a kiss and say goodbye
(Give a kiss goodbye)
‘Cause we’re not gonna work this out
Tonight

Well, there’s no need to fight, we’re just wasting time
(Tonight)
If you give it a try well then maybe you’ll find
(We might work this out)
Well, we know we’re in love so let’s keep it alive
(Keep it alive, keep it alive)
(Tonight)
I’m starting to see the morning light
We finally worked this out.”
