The Dance Songtext
von Dave Koz

Looking back on the memory of
The dance we′d shared underneath the star above
For a moment all the world was right
How could I have known that you would 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, the dance
I would have missed the dance, the dance
I would have missed the dance

Holding you, I held everything
For a moment, oh, 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, the dance
I would have missed the dance, the dance
I would have missed the dance

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, our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance
Oh, the dance

Sing, the dance
I said I would have missed the dance, the dance
Said I would have missed the dance, the dance
Said I would have missed the dance, the dance, dance
Said I would have missed the dance
