The Dance Songtext
von Garth Brooks

To describe it
But it′s funny this song fits perfectly well right here
The song is called "The Dance"

Looking back
On the memory of
The dance we shared
'Neath the stars above

For a moment
All the world was right
But 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 the king?

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


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)
