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 the silver screen And all its sad good-byes.
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 Should have known better than to cheat a friend And waste this chance that I've been given So I never gonna dance again, the way I danced with you.
Time can never mend the careless whisper of a good friend To the heart and mind, ignorance is kind There's no comfort in the truth Pain is all you'll find
Chorus:
Tonight the music seems so loud, I wish that we could lose this crowd Maybe it's better this way, We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say We could have been so good together, We could have lived this dance forever But no one's gonna dance with me, Please stay.
Chorus:
…Now that you've gone, What I did's so wrong, That you had to leave me alone
