The Dance

Looking back on the memory of The dance we'd shared underneath the star above For a moment all the world was right How could I have known that you would 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, the dance I would have missed the dance, the dance I would have missed the dance Holding you, I held everything For a moment, oh, 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 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, the dance I would have missed the dance, the dance I would have missed the dance 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, our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain But I'd have had to miss the dance Oh, the dance Sing, the dance I said I would have missed the dance, the dance Said I would have missed the dance, the dance Said I would have missed the dance, the dance, dance Said I would have missed the dance
