Time can never mend
The careless whisper of a good friend
To the heart and mind ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you find

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 it's sad goodbyes

I'm never going to 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've been given
So I'm never going to dance again
The way I danced with you

Time can never mend
The careless whisper of a good friend
To the heart and mind ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you find

I'm never going to 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've been given
So I'm never going to dance again
The way I danced with you
Never without you, no...

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 wanted to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But now who's going to dance with me?
Please, stay...

I'm never going to 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've been given
So I'm never going to dance again
The way I danced with you

Now, that you've gone
Was what I did so wrong, so wrong
That you had to leave me alone
