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 done my rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should have known better then 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 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've hurt each other with the things we want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived forever
But no, who's gonna dance with me?
Please stay

[Chorus]
Now that you're gone
Was what I did so wrong?
So wrong that you had to leave me alone?
