The Dance Lyrics

Looking back on the memory of 

 The dance we shared 'neath the stars alone 

 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 have missed the pain 

 But I'd of 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 have chanced 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 of had to miss the dance 

 

 Yes my life is better left to chance 

 I could have missed the pain but I'd of had to miss the dance
