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

[Repeat:]
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
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

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’ll find

[Repeat]

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 want to say
We could have been
so good together
We could have lived
this dance forever
But now who’s gonna
dance with me
Please stay

[Repeat]

Now that you’ve gone
Now that you’ve gone
Now that you’ve gone
Was what
I did so wrong
So wrong that
you had to
leave me alone
