Garth Brooks:The Dance

Lookin' back
On the memory of
The dance we shared
Beneath the stars above
And 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've had to miss the dance

Holding you
I held everything
And 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

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've had to miss the dance

Yes my life
It's better left to chance
I could've missed the pain
But I'd've had to miss
The dance
