Lookin' 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'da 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 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

It's my life,

It's better left to chance

I could have missed the pain

But I'da had to miss,

The dance
