The Dance

Looking back, on the memory of

The dance we shared,

Beneath the stars above.

For a moment,

All the world was right

How could I have known

That you'd ever say good-bye.

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 the 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 of had to miss the dance.

Tony Arata
