about
C'est la vie is the only song that sort of happened in May and where I had absolutely no notes. It has a bit of a tongue-in-cheek touch about the way life kicks in in the wrong moments and all your plans go out of the window. And then, instead of getting angry or panicking, you just shrug and smile and go with the flow. Because c'est la vie. And life is beautiful!
lyrics
C'est la vie
(Written on 4th May 2023)
So many plans, so many dreams
Life has different ideas so it seems
And yet I keep going step by step
Sometimes it's hard but I don't look back
Too much on my plate but what can I do
That's what I chose, no time to lose
But then life kicks in and comes with trouble
That I didn't need and then I stumble
C'est la vie!
C'est la vie, C'est la vie
C'est la vie
C'est la vie!
C'est la vie, C'est la vie
C'est la vie
And yet I keep smiling it could be worse
Nothing's impossible, I'll make it work
In a glass I'll cherish the very last drop
And if it's empty I'll just fill it up
C'est la vie!
C'est la vie, C'est la vie
C'est beau la vie
C'est la vie!
C'est la vie, C'est la vie
C'est beau la vie
C'est beau, c'est beau la vie,
C'est la vie
C'est beau, c'est beau la vie
C'est la vie
C'est la vie!
C'est la vie, C'est la vie
C'est beau la vie
C'est la vie!
C'est la vie, C'est la vie
C'est beau la vie

And yet I keep going step by step
Sometimes it's hard but I don't look back
Too much on my plate but what can I do
That's what I chose, no time to lose
But then life kicks in and comes with trouble
That I didn't need and then I stumble
C'est la vie!
C'est la vie, C'est la vie
C'est la vie
C'est la vie!
C'est la vie, C'est la vie
C'est la vie
And yet I keep smiling it could be worse
Nothing's impossible, I'll make it work
In a glass I'll cherish the very last drop
And if it's empty I'll just fill it up
C'est la vie!
C'est la vie, C'est la vie
C'est beau la vie
C'est la vie!
C'est la vie, C'est la vie
C'est beau la vie
C'est beau, c'est beau la vie,
C'est la vie
C'est beau, c'est beau la vie
C'est la vie
C'est la vie!
C'est la vie, C'est la vie
C'est beau la vie
C'est la vie!
C'est la vie, C'est la vie
C'est beau la vie
