C'est La Vie

I dressed up for our date at the café where we met

I waited and waited, but you weren't there yet

I gave up waiting and went out dancing

Then I saw you there with another girl romancing

She was in your arms, love was in your eyes

And suddenly I knew you'd been telling me lies

Sometimes life can turn you upside down

You think you've lost your love, then find your way around

Sometimes what you leave is what you need to leave behind

C'est la vie, that's how it goes

C'est la vie, nobody knows

It can't always be roses

It can't always be tears

But you don't get any stronger

Without facing down your fears

Don't moan and cry that it's not fair

Pick yourself up and get back out there

C'est la vie

Time went by, that's what it does

Life moved on, and so did I

I let go of what once was

And gave life another try

I grew strong and made new friends

Found new dreams around the bend

Losing love doesn't mean life ends

Sometimes it's where a new life begins

You never know what tomorrow brings

The road can change with every turn

Sometimes you lose the very thing

That teaches you what you deserve

C'est la vie, that's how it goes

C'est la vie, nobody knows

It can't always be roses

It can't always be tears

But you don't get any stronger

Without facing down your fears

Don't moan and cry that it's not fair

Pick yourself up and get back out there

C'est la vie

Today on the lawn, out in the sun

You saw me there, just having fun

You said you were sorry, wanted another chance

But I'd moved on from our old romance

I smiled and said, "We're not meant to be"

I'd moved on, and now I'm free

I don't need you anymore

I've found the life I'm living for

C'est la vie, that's how it goes

C'est la vie, nobody knows

It can't always be roses

It can't always be tears

But you don't get any stronger

Without facing down your fears

Don't moan and cry that it's not fair

Pick yourself up and get back out there

C'est la vie

Trop tard, mon ami, tu as raté ton tour

You had your chance, but you waited too long

Tu voulais revenir, mais j'ai déjà changé

I moved on, got stronger, walked away

Pas de regrets, pas de drame, c'est fini

No hard feelings, that's life, c'est la vie

I moved on

I got stronger

I don't need you anymore

C'est la vie, that's how it goes

C'est la vie, nobody knows

It can't always be roses

It can't always be tears

But you don't get any stronger

Without facing down your fears

Don't moan and cry that it's not fair

Pick yourself up and get back out there

C'est la vie

C'est la vie

That's how it goes

Sometimes you lose love

Just to find yourself
