Lookin back on the mem'ry 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 good bye
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
Holding you I held everything for a moment
wasn't I the king?
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
Yes my life, it's better left to chance
I could have have missed the pain,
but I'd have had to miss the dance
