The Dance Songtext
von Foster & Allen

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 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, but 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 is better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance
