C'est La Vie Lyrics - Georgie Fame

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 Jane 

Here'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, c'est la vie
