[Verse 1]
I guess you're calling it true, love
Cause I'm truly at a loss
And time stayed frozen, we became so cold
When we started out, we started out hot

[Verse 2]
Well I don't mean to be rude love
Remember you forgot
That this life I'd chosen, everything you know
Can never stay in the same place too long

[Pre-Chorus]
You're slipping through my hands
You're slipping through my hands again dear
I want you bad, but then where do we begin?
You're slipping through my hands
You're slipping through my hands again dear
I want you back
But then you said

[Chorus]
C'est la vie
If you wanna love me, never mind
Say you're sorry
Never mind what you think
Cause you know what I wanna believe
And I know you can't stay
So say c'est la vie
Parlez-vous français?

[Verse 3]
So much for calling a truce, love
Cause I can't take this war
(No one's safe love)
No one's safe on the front lines, even composers in their prime
Just to even out the score

[Pre-Chorus]
Your voice is in my head
Your envelopes on my bed
And I still want you bad, but then we know how it ends
Your voice is in my head
Like paper stained with pen
And now I want you bad
But damn, we said

[Chorus]
C'est la vie
If you wanna love me, never mind
Say you're sorry
Never mind what you think
Cause you know what I wanna believe
And I know you can't stay
So say c'est la vie
Je suis vraiment désolé

[Bridge]
I don't wanna miss you, love
It's haunting every thought
Cause we just took up a lil 4 star with fools gold
Yeah good luck
Your heart is a ghost and this beating won't stop

[Chorus]
C'est la vie
If you wanna love me, never mind
Say you're sorry
Never mind what you think
Cause you know what I wanna believe
And I know you can't stay
So say c'est la vie
Parlez-vous français?

C'est la vie
If you wanna love me, never mind
Say you're sorry
Never mind what you think
Cause you know what I wanna believe
And I know you can't stay
So say c'est la vie
Je suis vraiment désolé
