Lookin' back on the memory of the dance we shared
Beneath the stars above, for a moment
All the world was right
How could I have known
That you'd ever say goodbye
And that 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?
But if I'd only known
That the king would fall
It used to say
You know I might have changed it all
And that 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
It's my life
It's better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance
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
You
