looking 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'd have 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'd have had to miss the dance
