The Dance

Looking back on the memory of
 The dance we shared beneath the stars above
 And 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've 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've 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

 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
