THE DANCE

By: Garth Brooks

Lookin' back, on the memory of,
the dance we shared, 'neath the stars above.
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.

And now, I 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!

It's my life,
it's better left to chance.
I could have missed the pain,
but I'd of had to miss the dance!
