The Dance

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 have 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 have had to miss the dance It's my life, it's better left to chance I could have missed the pain But I'd have had to miss the dance
