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 its 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 known better than to cheat a friend,
And waste a chance that I´d been given.
So I´m 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.

REPEAT CHORUS

What am I without your love?
Tonite 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 want to say.

We could have been so good together,
We could have lived this dance 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?
