Careless Whisper
Seether Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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 it's sad goodbyes
I'm never going to dance again
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 going to dance again
The way I danced with you
Oh
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 going to dance again
These 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 going to dance again
The way I danced with you
Oh
Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We've hurt each other with the things we want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
Now who's going to dance with me?
Please stay
I'm never going to dance again
These 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 going to dance again
The way I danced with you
Oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Seether's version of "Careless Whisper" is a inspired cover of George Michael's original song. The opening lyrics convey feelings of uncertainty and hesitation as the singer takes his partner’s hand to dance, all while something in their eyes reminds him of the silver screen and its tragic goodbyes. The music then fades away as the singer admits that he is never going to dance again. He reveals that his guilt-ridden feet have got no rhythm and that although it's easy to pretend otherwise, he knows that his partner isn't naive enough to fall for his act. He confesses that he should have never cheated a friend and that he has wasted a precious opportunity. He then repeats that he will never dance again, in the way that he danced with his partner.
In the next part of the song, the singer talks about how time can't mend the careless whispers of a good friend. He believes that ignorance is truly a blissful state of mind as the truth brings only pain. He repeats that he's never going to dance again in the same way, before inviting his partner to stay, acknowledging that the music is loud and it's better to stay together.

Reminds me of old movies
And all it's sad goodbyes
Old movies usually have sad goodbyes
I'm never going to dance again
I will never dance again

Tonight the music seems so loud
The music sounds louder tonight
I wish that we could lose this crowd
I wish we could be alone, away from everyone else
Maybe it's better this way
Perhaps it's better that we stay apart
We've hurt each other with the things we want to say
We have said hurtful things to each other
We could have been so good together
We could have had a good relationship together
We could have lived this dance forever
We could have stayed in this state of happiness forever
Now who's going to dance with me?
I am alone and have no one to dance with
Please stay
I am pleading for you to stay
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

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'm never gonna dance again
These 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 the chance that I'd 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
These 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 the chance that I'd been given

So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you

I loved the original, but seether kills it in an awesomely haunting way: “Pain is ALL you’ll find” and that guitar
