The Dance Songtext
von Michael Ball

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 have 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 changed it all

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 of had to miss the dance

Yes my life is better left to chance
I could have missed the pain but I'd of had to miss the dance
