C'est La Vie Way - Wolf Parade

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
