Looking back
             on the memory of
            the dance we shared
           'neath the stars alone.  
               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've missed the pain,
    But i'd of 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 chanced 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've missed the pain,
   But I'd of had to miss the dance.

  Yes, My life is better left to chance.
       I could've missed the pain.
    But I'd of had to miss the dance.
