Lookin' back on the memory of
The dance we shared neath the stars above
For a moment all the world was right
Now 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 now I held everything
For a moment wasn't I the king
If I'd only known how the king would fall
Hey who's to say you know I might have changed it all
So 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
Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance
