Beneath the stars above, for a moment all the world was right.

How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye?
[Chorus]
C D Bm
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 had to miss the dance
[Verse 2]
G C D G D
Holding you I held everything. For a moment wasn't I the king?

you know I might have changed it all.

And now, I'm glad I didn't know the way it all would end,

Our lives, are better left to chance. I could have missed the pain

Yes my life, it's better left to chance.
