    I lost my husband 2 years ago this month and this song helped me appreciate "the Dance" (life). We were married almost 30 years, a total of 10,623 days. The loss was/is devastating and I agree, "I'm glad I didn't know how it all would end. I could've missed the pain but I'd of had to miss the dance".

      Sorry for your loss. I lost my wife of 26 years a little over 5 years ago, this song was used in the commemerative video we made for the funeral showing pictures of our lives together. I still have a hard time getting through it seeing the memories of the happier times, but I wouldn't have missed the dance for the world.

Again I appreciate the help, take care. Love this song by the way even though I'm more of a rock and roll fan. There's a video on RUclips by the way, that you may or not be aware of and it's of the writer of The Dance telling stories to some journalists and he ends with playing guitar and singing this song. He does such a good job and I was so impressed that I wonder why he didn't keep it for himself and release it to make himself a star even if he became a one hit wonder?

    First, it's a cover! Garth Brooks has more depth to his voice and the song itself has a haunting quality to it. And the dance refers to the big picture. As in, sure, had I walked away from so and so, I could have avoided the heartache, but I would have missed all the sweet moments (the dance). It just means don't avoid things from a place of fear. You may suffer from it at some point but there is so much to be gained too. You may lose your love, but could you live without the memory of holding each other and dancing... don't miss the forest for the trees.

    This isn’t Garth Brooks. It is extremely difficult to find anything on him… Amazon Music has a little bit. Garth is an incredibly talented singer and his voice is very distinctive. He also did a side project as an alter ego named Chris Gaines, a rock star. It’s even harder to find any of that music unless you bought the actual recordings back in the day. He’s phenomenal! His concerts are wild and crazy and super fun!

The Dance is one of Garth's BEST songs - but this is unfortunately NOT him. The Thunder Rolls, Papa Love Mama, Friends in Low Places are all MUST see videos - but you have to do the concert versions of them all.

    The Dance is a metaphor for a relationship (or life spent with someone). He’s saying he could’ve avoided pain of loss if he knew how it would end by not starting The Dance in the first place, but then he would’ve missed all the good things that happened during it. “I’m glad I didn’t know the way it all would end…my life is better left to chance…I could’ve missed the pain, but I’d have had to miss The Dance.”

I LOVED the whole show & seeing Billy Joel make a guest appearance (the man is a legend) just made it so much better. I later became a bigger fan thanks to artists like Shania Twain (thanks to “Whose bed have your boots been under?”) & The Dixie Chicks & to this day, the list just gets bigger. My favourite Aussie country group are “The McClymonts”, an all-sisters trio who always give great shows.

    As someone else said - it's about ALL of life and the eternal human struggle of loss. It makes me think that he's saying we all lose people- whether we lose them through death or something else. In our grief, we cannot see beyond that pain - but as time goes on, we realize that pain comes from our ability to love deeply and he has come to the decision that no matter how much pain the loss caused - it was worth it. There would've been no pain if there hadn't been deep love and millions of beautiful memories. And he would've had to miss all that hence the line "....I would've missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance." I hope I've explained that correctly! A beautiful song and so true ❤

    While many people believe that the song is about love, or lamenting the loss of a great romance, it's actually got a different meaning according to Garth Brooks.
    "To a lot of people, I guess 'The Dance' is a love gone bad song," Garth said "Which, you know, that it is. But to me it's always been a song about life. Or maybe the loss of those people that have given the ultimate sacrifice for a dream that they believed in, like the John F. Kennedy's or the Martin Luther King's. John Wayne's or the Keith Whitley's. And if they could come back, I think they would say to us what the lyrics of 'The Dance' say."

    As many have stated the song is about life and what the lyrics are saying is that if we knew that things were going to go wrong we might change our future. Specifically the song is talking about the singers relationship with someone they loved at one time, but the relationship ended and even though there was pain, the singer feels that "The Dance" was more important and that if he had changed things, he would have lost "The Dance". Why "The Dance" ended is not as important as the fact that we get to have "The Dance".

    Interpreted literally, he’s reminiscing about a moment in time with someone he felt connected to, but the relationship eventually ended. He’s saying that if he had the choice to do it again, or to pass on the experience and avoid the heartbreak, he would still do it all over again. The weight of that perfect moment, is heavier than the pain that followed. If missing out on that pain meant missing out on that dance, then he’d still choose to have that moment. Interpreted broadly it’s a metaphor for life.

    Anything that has a meaningful experience that causes u heartfelt pain or regret... Would the joy u learned about ... B worth the pain at the end .. the dance is knowing both sides the good journey .. and the end of one

    1. Life equates to the Dance 2. A relationship over equates to the dance....any event could be the dance.

    @Asia and BJ- One of my fav songs ever. I am not what Garth is actually referring to by The Dance but I do know its played at funerals a lot. I was lucky enough to see Garth and Trisha in concert 5 years ago and he put on a show.

    It's well 9:30 and I clicked on this without thinking, I have a special place for this song and wanted to see what you thought about it ... in Sept of '75 I met the girl who became my high school sweetheart, and the love of my life. I was a year ahead so when I graduated and went to school we faced a few challenges. Still we continued our dance. As time went on we agreed we didn't want to start life together ... knowing a family would come soon after ... in an apartment so decided to save and start right. May 4th, 1984 the night before I was going to officially propose she was in a horrific accident and at approximately 9:30 PM she was officially pronounced as having passed from her injuries. I have been thinking of her all day ... I never married she was it for me ... I wanted to feel some joy, some music. This song hit me differently than others, for me it spoke to how I survived her loss even though I didn't know how our dance would end. We all need to remember there are no promises in life, but the joy of living far exceeds anything promised. I had nearly 9 years and thought I had a lifetime, I didn't but damn if I would give up 1 second of those nine years. Kate gave me unconditional love and for that I'm eternally grateful. Your reactions here are beautiful and help remind us all that life matters.

    His live version of him singing this with a cancer patient in the croud is beautiful. With Mother's Day approaching, his song from a few years ago is well worth listening to. The title is "Mom". I haven't seen any reactions to it. There are a few live ones on RUclips but the one I saw was live on the Ellen Show.

    I've always understood it as a metaphor like going into something without knowing what the outcome would be. Taking chances and not looking back with regrets so to speak.

    My very good friend Randy who was a cowboy. He loved country music. I was a headbanger. Randy for almost a year, would tell me, “you have got to hear this new song by Garth Brooks, I know you will love it, because you like ballads as well as your hard stuff”. It never came to pass that he could present the song to me, something always got in the way.
    I heard it for the first time, at his funeral, winter of 1990, A fellow sung it live. Whenever I hear “The Dance”, I can’t help not crying when I hear this song, because my friend Randy was right, he new me well, I love the song, but to me, the song is about my friend whom I still miss do very much. “Randy Parks”. RIP brother.

    Actually, the dance is the whole situation, from beginning to end where they split up the whole dance is their time together that is what this means to dance it isn't a physical dance, it is the whole experience being with each other, the dance

    My favorite Garth Brooks song, hands down, is "If Tomorrow Never Comes". He was doing a lot of introspective stuff like "Unanswered Prayers" and the like at this time in his career. Sure, give "Friends In Low Places" a listen for that raucus don't-give-a-damn country song. But if looking back is your thing, you'll like these softer songs. Thanks for doing "The Dance". My late sister loved this song so we played it at her memorial service. There wasn't a dry eye in the place, including the pastor!

    I have used "The Dance" as a reference to losing my dad to complications of dementia; moreover, it expresses that I couldn't change the outcome and truly appreciated the precious time I had with him.

    The beauty of a song allows everybody to take it in and interrupt it in their own way.
    A song will touch millions of people in millions of ways, depending where they are in their own Journey and what they've been through thus far in life.
    Love you guys.

    The Dance is symbolism ffor life.. and we all dance all the way to the end.. its a look to.. if you knew what was coming would you still do it? Its better to not know and Dance.. You should watch this in a live show.. you think you have goose bumps.. his concerts are the best.. I've seen hundreds of concerts.. The crowd singing.. the change from high energy to slow.. humble pauses.. yelling screaming.. just plain.. Fun!! I cant hear this song with out tearing up.. watch it live..

    To me this song describes life’s good times/meaningful times as the dance. Dances end life ends. Looking back if you could choose to miss the pain you might, but then you miss the dance. My father died at 46 and this song helped me out of a dark place. Beautiful song.

    I feel that the dance is more of a metaphor of life's journey verses one singular relationship. Trying to be in those moments with everyone you love and lost. Going through the hardships as well as all of the beautiful moments. Makes me think about when my parents were alive and how I was blessed to know the two giants in my life, and how much I miss them. ...And all the others that I have loved and lost.
