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
They used 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
Oh, the dance
Said I would have missed the dance
