Careless Whisper
Kenny G/Brian McKnight Lyrics

I feel so unsure
I am uncertain and doubtful

As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
I guide you towards the area where people are dancing

As the music dies, something in your eyes
As the song ends, I notice a feeling in your eyes

Calls to mind the silver screen
It reminds me of films or movies

And all its sad good-byes
And the sorrowful farewells of characters in those movies

I'm never gonna dance again
I won't be able to dance like I did again

Guilty feet have got no rhythm
I have no sense of rhythm because of my guilt

Though it's easy to pretend
It's simple to act as if nothing happened

I know you're not a fool
I am aware that you are not stupid

Shoulda known better than to cheat a friend
I should have been wise enough not to deceive a friend

And waste this chance that I've been given
And squander the opportunity presented to me

So I'm never gonna dance again
Therefore, I won't dance again

The way I danced with you
Like we danced together

Tonight the music seems so loud
The songs appear louder than usual tonight

I am wishing that we could lose this crowd
I want us to be alone and away from this audience

But maybe it's better this way
Perhaps it's more beneficial like this

We hurt each other with the things we wanna say
We offend each other with our unsaid thoughts

We could have been so good together
We had potential to be an excellent pair

We could have danced this dance forever
We could have danced together for a long time

But no one's gonna dance with me
But nobody wants to dance with me

Please stay
Please don't leave me

I shoulda known better than to cheat a friend
I ought to have known better than deceiving a friend

And waste this chance that I've been given
And wasting the opportunity presented to me

So I'm never gonna dance again
Therefore, I won't be dancing again

The way I danced with you
The way I danced together with you
