I feel so unsure,
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor.
As the music dies...
Something in your eyes,
Calls to mind a silver screen,
And all those sad goodbyes.
CHORUS
I m never gonna dance again,
Guilty feet have got no rhythm.
Though it s easy to pretend,
I know you re not a fool.
I should have no better than to cheat a friend,
And waste the chance that I d been given.
So I m never gonna dance again,
The way I danced with you.
CHORUS
Time can never mend,
The careless whispers of a good friend.
To the heart and mind,
If your answer s kind...
There s no comfort in the truth,
Pain is all you ll find.
REPEAT CHORUS
What am I without your love?
Tonite the music seems so loud,
I wish that we could lose the crowd.
Maybe it s better this way,
We d hurt each other with the things we want to say.
We could have been so good together,
We could have made this last forever...
But now, who s gonna dance with me?
Please stay.
(Alternatively):
And now it s never gonna be
That way...
REPEAT CHORUS
Now that you re gone...
Now that you re gone...
Now that you re gone...
Was what I did so wrong?
So wrong that you had to leave me alone?
