Why In your c'est la vie way
Did you cry, cry, cry
When you were listening to a mixtape from your friends?
Do you miss them
In your c'est la vie way
More than you'd missed me if you'd stayed
In the hemisphere I asked you to return from?
Or maybe you can pull apart your mind
Like if there's a Russian doll
Inside another Russian doll
You see it all in your c'est la vie way
So I, I'll try and be a decent partner
Try to keep the teardrops off your face
Be kind enough to regard
In your c'est la vie way
In your c'est la vie way
In your c'est la vie way
In your c'est la vie way
The ceremony was alright
But like most ceremonies it
Lacked a gravity that I
Would have liked
There were too many cameras out
And the microphone gave out as she adjusted her gown
So the crowd couldn't make out the first half of his busted vows
You said if you ever leave me I will die
I could have died it was so cheap
Oh come on father set us free
But our hearts fell apart anyway
When we heard her say c'est la vie
Oh yes our hearts fall apart anyway
When we heard her say c'est la vie
