Lookin' 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 have missed the pain, but I'da 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'da had to miss The dance Yes, my life, it's better left to chance I could have missed the pain, but I'da had to miss The dance
