Careless Whisper
Whisper one more time
That I love you my friend
It's a words that i can't say again
I want to take you by the hand
And lead you through the pain
But you're into the bodyband again
You say you're feeling lonely
And all you've got is lonely
But i'm here for you again
And i'm gonna hold you tight
And i'll take your pain away tonight
Chorus: Careless Whisper
Oh you give yourself away
You fall in love again and again
You can't help what you feel (you feel)
And it don't matter where you've been (where you've been)
You say you're feeling down and out (down and out)
And all you've got is blue (you're blue)
But I'm here for you again (again)
And I won't let you down (don't let me down)
Come and be with me tonight
Verse 2: (Note: The lyrics for this verse seem to be missing from the recording.)
So take these pain away (take these pain away)
Your suffering has to end tonight (end tonight)
So take these careless whispers now (whispers now)
And i'll take you by the hand and lead you through the pain. (lead you through the pain)
Bridge: You can tell me to my face (to my face)
That you don't need me anymore (need me anymore)
Or you can walk away and leave me here (leave me here)
But i won't hear another word of lies anymore. (another word of lies)
Chorus: Careless Whisper. (Careless Whisper)
Outro: So take these pain away (take these pain away) Take these careless whispers now. (whispers now) I want to be the one for you, for ever and ever. (forever and ever) And i will hold you tight. (hold you tight) Forever and ever. Forever and ever. Forever and ever. Forever and ever. Forever and ever. Forever and ever. Forever and ever. Forever and ever. Forever and ever. Forever and ever. Forever and ever. Forever and ever. Forever and ever. Forever and ever. Forever and ever. Forever.
