Listening Worksheet - Careless Whisper
Careless Whisper lyrics, by George Michael
Instructions
Oh, whoa, whoa, oh
I feel so unsureAs I take your hand and lead you to the dance floorAs the music dies, something in your eyesCalls to mind a silver screen and all its sad goodbyes
I'm never gonna dance againGuilty feet have got no rhythmThough it's easy to pretendI know you're not a foolI should have known better than to cheat a friendAnd waste the chance that I'd been givenSo I'm never gonna dance againThe way I danced with you, oh
Time can never mendThe careless whispers of a good friendTo the heart and mind, ignorance is kindThere's no comfort in the truth, pain is all you'll find
I'm never gonna dance againGuilty feet have got no rhythmThough it's easy to pretendI know you're not a foolI should have known better than to cheat a friend (shoulda known better, yeah)And waste the chance that I'd been givenSo I'm never gonna dance againThe way I danced with you, oh
Never without your love
Tonight, the music seems so loudI wish that we could lose this crowdMaybe it's better this wayWe'd hurt each other with the things we want to sayWe could have been so good togetherWe could have lived this dance foreverBut now, who's gonna dance with me?Please, stay
And I'm never gonna dance againGuilty feet have got no rhythmThough it's easy to pretendI know you're not a foolI should have known better than to cheat a friendAnd waste the chance that I'd been givenSo I'm never gonna dance againThe way I danced with you, oh
Now that you're gone(Now that you're gone)Was what I did so wrong, so wrongThat you had to leave me alone
