The Dance Songtext
von Westlife

Looking back on the memory of
The dance we shared beneath the stars above
And 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 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, who's to say?
You know I might′ve 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

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
