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 the chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again

The way I danced with you

Time can never mend

The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind

There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you 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 want to say
We could have been so good together

We could have danced this dance forever
But now who's gonna dance with me
Please stay


(chorus)


(x 2)
Now I'm never gonna dance again
Now it's easy to pretend

I should have known better than to cheat a friend
Maybe, maybe
