The Dance

Looking back on the memory of

The dance we shared beneath 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 have had to miss the dance

Holding you I held everything

For a moment wasn't I a king?

If I'd only known how the king would fall

Then 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've missed the pain

But I'd have had to miss the dance

Yes, my life is better left to chance

I could have missed the pain

But I'd have had to miss the dance
