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 changed it all       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
