The Dance

Looking back on the memory of the dance we shared beneath 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've missed the pain, but I'd have to miss the dance.
Holding you, I held everything
and for a moment wasn't I the king.
But if I'd only known how the king would fall.
Yeah, 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've missed the pain, but I'd have to miss the dance.
Yes. my life is better left to chance.
I could've missed the pain, but I'd have to miss the dance.
