[Verse 1]
I've been taking what you've given
Now I'm thinkin' I've been livin'
The fantasy of your sweet smile
Sad as blue and blue as only
You could cast the color on me
Can you see my fire red?

[Chorus]
C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie here in my lonely
C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie here in my lonely without him

[Verse 2]
Boy, you swallow truth like honey
As you spew your lies upon me
Sweet and smooth as it goes down

[Chorus]
C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie here in my lonely
C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie here in my lonely without him

[Bridge]
Oh, say you, say me
Say always and forevermore I'll be
Your perfect little sugar bride
But oh, if you could see
The truth within our perfect harmony
Your melody is bringing me down
C'est La
C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie

[Chorus]
C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie here in my lonely
C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie here in my lonely without him

[Outro]
Without him
Boy, you swallow truth like honey
