There was an emptiness in me

I was imprisoned by the power of gold

With one honest touch you set me free

 

(Chorus) Let the world stop turning, let the sun stop burning

Let them tell me love's not worth going through

If it all falls apart, I will know deep in my heart

The only dream that matters had come true

In this life I was loved by you

 

For every mountain I have climbed

Every raging river crossed

You were the treasure that I longed to find

Without you love, I'd be lost

 

In this life I was loved by you

Looking 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

 

(Chorus) And now I'm glad I don'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

If I'd only known how the King would fall

Who's to say, you know I might have changed it all

 

Yes my life is better left to chance

I could have missed the pain, but I'd of had to miss the dance
