[Intro]

      
              

    
             O

        
h..oh..oh

[Verse 1]

           
I feel so unsu

  
re,
     
As I take your

              
 hand and lead

      
 you to the da

nce floor.
           
As the music d

           
ies, something

                           
 in your eyes,
 
Calls to mind 

a silver scree

n,
    
And all its sa

d goodbyes.

[Chorus]

I'm never gonn

a dance again,

 
           
Guilty feet ha

           
ve got no rhyt

hm.

Though it's ea

sy to pretend,
    
I know you're 

not a fool.
   
I should have 

known better t

han to cheat a

 friend, 
           
And waste the 

              
chance that I'

        
ve been given.

So I'm never g

onna dance aga

in,
           
The way I danc

           
ed with you wh

 
oo hoo - oh ye

ah

[Verse 2]

           
Time can never

     
 mend,
     
The careless w

         
hispers of a g

ood friend.

To the heart a

nd mind, 
           
Ignorance is k

   
ind

There's no com

fort in the tr

uth, 

Pain is all yo

u'll find.

[Chorus]

I'm never gonn

a dance again,

 
           
Guilty feet ha

           
ve got no rhyt

hm.

Though it's ea

sy to pretend,
    
I know you're 

not a fool.
   
I should have 

known better t

han to cheat a

 friend, 
           
And waste the 

              
chance that I'

So I'm never g

onna dance aga

in,
           
The way I danc

           
ed with you wh

 
oo hoo - oh ye

ah

What am I without your love?

[Verse 3]


Tonight the mu

sic seems so l

oud, 
           
I wish that we

              
 could lose th

       
e crowd.

Maybe it's bet

ter this way, 

We hurt each o

ther with the 

things we want

 to say.

We could have 

been so good t

ogether, 

We could have 

made this danc

e forever... 
     
But now, who's

 gonna dance w

ith me?

Please stay.

[Chorus]

I'm never gonn

a dance again,

 
           
Guilty feet ha

           
ve got no rhyt

hm.

Though it's ea

sy to pretend,
    
I know you're

So I'm never g

onna dance aga
