“I regret sticking with my girlfriend all through highschool. My life didn’t begin to get good until she was gone.”
Yea, and I bet like me you thought life could not get any lower when the break-up came. With time though came wisdom.
Garth Brooks knew when he wrote these words to Unanswered Prayers
“Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers”
And in the song “The Dance”
The Dance:
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
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
Holding you, I held everything
For a moment wasn’t I a 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 have had to miss the dance
Yes my life, it’s better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I’d have had to miss the dance
