C'est la vie.
Have your leaves all turned to brown?
Will you scatter them around you?
C'est la vie.
Do you love?
And then how am I to know
If you don't let your love show for me?
C'est la vie.
Oh, oh, c'est la vie.
Oh, oh, c'est la vie.
Who knows, who cares for me?
C'est la vie.
In the night,
Do you light a lover's fire?
Do the ashes of desire for you remain?
Like the sea,
There's a love too deep to show.
Took a storm before my love flowed for you.
C'est la vie.
+ Chorus
+ Interlude
Like a song,
Out of tune and out of time,
All I needed was a rhyme for you;
C'est la vie.
Do you give?
Do you live from day to day?
Is there no song I can play for you?
C'est la vie.
+ Chorus
