The Dance

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 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
 I held everything
 For a moment
 Wasn't I a king
 Buf 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
 It's better left to chance
 I could have missed the pain
 But I'd have had to miss
 The dance
