Looking back

on the memory of

the dance we shared

'neath the stars above.

For a moment

all the world was right.
How could I have known

that you'd ever say goodbye

And now

I'm glad I didn't know

The way it all would end

the way it all would go

Our lives

are better left to chance

I could have missed the pain.

But I'd of had to miss

The Dance.

Holding you

I held everything

For a moment

wasn't I a king

But if I'd only known

how the king would fall

Hey who's to say

you know I might have changed it all

And now

I'm glad I didn't know

The way it all would end

the way it all would go

Our lives

are better left to chance

I could have missed the pain.

But I'd of had to miss

The Dance.

And now

I'm glad I didn't know

The way it all would end

the way it all would go

Our lives

are better left to chance

I could have missed the pain.

But I'd of had to miss

The Dance.

Yes my life

is better left to chance

I could have missed the pain

but I'd of had to miss

The Dance.
