Careless Whisper

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
Of dark and sad good-byes
1 - I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know your not a fool
I 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
Oh
Time can never mend
The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind ignorance is kind
But there's no comfort in the truth
The pain is the heart you'll find
Repeat 1
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 wanna to say
We could've been so good together
We could've lived this dance forever
But now who's gonna dance with me
Please stay
(Now that you're gone)
Now that you're gone
Oh, oh
(Now that you're gone)
Now that you're gone
(La da...)
Repeat 1
