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 I never wanna 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 gonna dance again The way I danced with you Na-na-ni-di-do 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 I never wanna 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 gonna dance again The way I danced with you Never, no, no, no Oh, oh 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 (together) We could have lived this dance forever No one's gonna dance with me? So, please, stay I'm never gonna dance again (never gonna dance again) Guilty feet have got no rhythm (ooh-ooh) Though it's easy to pretend I know you're not a fool (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 (oh-oh, oh-oh) So I'm never gonna dance again The way I danced with you I'm never gonna dance, I'm never gonna dance again (dance again) Oh, ooh Aye-ooh, no-oh, no-ooh-oh Ooh I'll never dance again

You promised a lifetime, but left in a moment I wonder if you even think about me Throw me a lifeline because I'm barely floating Stranded and broken You know you got me lost in the dark Is it too late? Is it too late for us? You know you got me lost in my heart Is it too late? Is it too late for us? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away Just to let me go Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo You look like an angel Thought I was in heaven But I'm just falling without you with me I thought I was able to learn from my lessons Was trying my best but You know you got me lost in the dark Is it too late? Is it too late for us? You know you got me lost in my heart Is it too late? Is it too late for us? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away? Just to let me go? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Ohhhh I'll never love again, I'll never love again Ohhhh I'll never love again, I'll never love again Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away? Just to let me go? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo
