Lookin' back On the memory of The dance we shared Beneath the stars above And for a moment All the world was right But 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 And 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 Yes my life It's better left to chance I could've missed the pain But I'da had to miss The dance
