Looking back, on the memory of
The dance we've 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 didn't know
the way it all would it end
the way it all would it go
Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
but I'd have had to miss
the dance
the dance
I would have missed the dance, the dance
I would have missed 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
you used 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
could have missed the pain
but I'd have had to miss
the dance
the dance
I would have missed the dance, the dance
I would have missed 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 to miss
the dance
yes, our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
but I'd have had to miss the dance
the dance, oh the dance, singing
the dance
say, i would have missed the dance
the dance,
say, i would have missed the dance
the dance, the dance
