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 ll find
Should ve known better
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
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 ve 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 ll find
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 ve known better than to cheat a friend
and waste this chance that I ve been given
so I m never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you
Never 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 d want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But noone s gonna dance with me
Please stay
And 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 ve 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
(Now that you re gone) Now that you re gone
(Now that you re gone) What I did s so wrong
that you had to leave me alone
