Janelle Arthur - The Dance (American Idol Performance) Lyrics

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
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 have to miss the dance
Holding you I held everything
For a moment wasn't I the queen
But if I'd only known
How the queen 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
My life is better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance
I'd of had to miss the dance
