   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 no one'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 is so wrong (so wrong) 
that you had to leave me alone  |
