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
