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,
If your answer's kind
There's no comfort in the truth,
Pain is all you'll find.

[Chorus]

What am I without your love?
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 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.
And now it's never gonna be
That way

[Chorus]

Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
What I did that was so wrong?
So wrong that you had to leave me alone?
