C'est la Vie - Sarah Vaughan

John’s in love with Joan

Joan’s in love with Jim

Jim’s in love with someone

Who’s not in love with him

What was meant to be, must be

C’est la vie, c’est la vie

Life’s a funny thing

When it comes to love

You don’t always conquer

The one you’re dreaming of As they say in old Paree

C’est la vie, c’est la vie

Those who fall in love agree

It’s the unsolved mystery

If your big romance cannot be You’ll find someone new, cherie

There goes happy Jay

He’s the reason why

She just found a sweetheart

But no one’s gonna cry

Though she stole his love from me

C’est la vie, c’est la vie

C’est la vie
