And now,
I’m glad I did n’t know
the way it all would end,
the way it all would go.
Our lives
are bet ter left to chance.
I could have missed the pain,
but I’d have had to miss

For the a dance mo we ment,
with was n’t I the king?
If I’d on ly known
how the king would fall.
How Hey, who’s to say?
You know I might have changed it all.
And now,
I’m glad I did n’t know

Our lives

I could have missed the pain,

Hold ing you, (G)dance.
Yes, my life,
it’s bet ter left to chance.
I could have missed the pain,
but I’d have had to miss
