You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for the place to go
Where they play the right music, getting in the swing
You come in to look for a King
Anybody could be that guy
Night is young and the music's high
With a bit of rock music, everything is fine
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

You're a teaser, you turn 'em on
Leave them burning and then you're gone
Looking out for another, anyone will do
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

THEY ALL WALKED AWAY, NOTHING TO SAY
THEY'D JUST LOST THEIR DEAREST FRIEND
ALL THAT HE SAID, NOW HE WAS DEAD
SO THIS WAS THE WAY IT WOULD END
THE DREAMS THEY HAD DREAMED WERE NOT WHAT THEY'D SEEMED
NOW THAT HE WAS DEAD AND GONE
THE GARDEN, THE JAIL, THE HAMMER, THE NAIL
HOW COULD A NIGHT BE SO LONG?
THEN CAME THE MORNING
NIGHT TURNED INTO DAY
THE STONE WAS ROLLED AWAY
HOPE ROSE WITH THE DAWN
THEN CAME THE MORNING
SHADOWS VANISHED BEFORE THE SUN
DEATH HAD LOST AND LIFE HAD WON
FOR MORNING HAD COME
THE ANGEL, THE STAR, THE KINGS FROM AFAR
THE WEDDING, THE WATER, THE WINE
NOW IT WAS DONE, THEY'D TAKEN HER SON
WASTED BEFORE HIS TIME
SHE KNEW IT WAS TRUE, SHE'D WATCHED HIM DIE TOO
SHE'D HEARD THEM CALL HIM JUST A MAN
BUT DEEP IN HER HEART SHE KNEW FROM THE START
SOMEHOW HER SON WOULD LIVE AGAIN
THEN CAME THE MORNING
NIGHT TURNED INTO DAY
THE STONE WAS ROLLED AWAY
HOPE ROSE WITH THE DAWN
THEN CAME THE MORNING
SHADOWS VANISHED BEFORE THE SUN
DEATH HAD LOST AND LIFE HAD WON
FOR MORNING HAD COME
THEN CAME THE MORNING
SHADOWS VANISHED BEFORE THE SUN
DEATH HAD LOST AND LIFE HAD WON
FOR MORNING HAD COME
FOR MORNING HAD COME

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
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I've 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
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt each other
With the things we want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But now who's gonna dance with me
Please stay
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
Was what I did so wrong
So wrong that you had to leave me alone?

HE DEALS THE CARDS AS A MEDITATION
AND THOSE HE PLAYS NEVER SUSPECT
HE DOESN'T PLAY FOR THE MONEY HE WINS
HE DON'T PLAY FOR RESPECT
HE DEALS THE CARDS TO FIND THE ANSWER
THE SACRED GEOMETRY OF CHANCE
THE HIDDEN LAW OF A PROBABLE OUTCOME
THE NUMBERS LEAD A DANCE
I KNOW THAT THE SPADES ARE THE SWORDS OF A SOLDIER
I KNOW THAT THE CLUBS ARE WEAPONS OF WAR
I KNOW THAT DIAMONDS MEAN MONEY FOR THIS ART
BUT THAT'S NOT THE SHAPE OF MY HEART
HE MAY PLAY THE JACK OF DIAMONDS
HE MAY LAY THE QUEEN OF SPADES
HE MAY CONCEAL A KING IN HIS HAND
WHILE THE MEMORY OF IT FADES
I KNOW THAT THE SPADES ARE THE SWORDS OF A SOLDIER
I KNOW THAT THE CLUBS ARE WEAPONS OF WAR
I KNOW THAT DIAMONDS MEAN MONEY FOR THIS ART
BUT THAT'S NOT THE SHAPE OF MY HEART
THAT'S NOT THE SHAPE
THE SHAPE OF MY HEART
IF I TOLD HER THAT I LOVED YOU
YOU'D MAYBE THINK THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG
I'M NOT A MAN OF TOO MANY FACES
THE MASK I WEAR IS ONE
BUT THOSE WHO SPEAK KNOW NOTHING
AND FIND OUT TO THEIR COST
LIKE THOSE WHO CURSE THEIR LUCK IN TOO MANY PLACES
AND THOSE WHO FEAR ARE LOST
I KNOW THAT THE SPADES ARE THE SWORDS OF A SOLDIER
I KNOW THAT THE CLUBS ARE WEAPONS OF WAR
I KNOW THAT DIAMONDS MEAN MONEY FOR THIS ART
BUT THAT'S NOT THE SHAPE OF MY HEART
THAT'S NOT THE SHAPE OF MY HEART
THAT'S NOT THE SHAPE
THE SHAPE OF MY HEART
