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 good bye?



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 the 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.



Yes my life, is better left to chance,

I could have missed the pain,

But I'd have had to miss.......The Dance
