There's nothing on the TV
And nothing in my bank account
Nothing's working
I'm introverted, so I never go out
When I talk to strangers
It's in a language that nobody speaks
But I don't get too down
'Cause I know that you get me

And when we come home
If the house is cold
All I want is to hear you say

C'est la vie
Come on, baby, let it be
I'll take anything that comes if you'll take me
Oh, oh-oh, now I see
There's no other guarantee
All I gotta hear at night is you love me
Oh, c'est la vie

I'm in a long line
Just standing at the back of the queue
Well, that's alright
'Cause I'm standing here just thinking of you
It's gotta move sometime
I reckon it's not anytime soon
Well, that's just life
And I'm coming home to you

Life goes on and on
All is said and done
All I want is to hear you say
Is to hear you say

C'est la vie
Come on, baby, let it be
I'll take anything that comes if you'll take me
Oh, oh-oh, now I see
There's no other guarantee
All I gotta hear at night is you love me
Oh, c'est la vie

I got you, I got you
It's true, it's true
I got you, I got you
It's true, it's true

So let's twist and shout, let's twist and shout
'Cause there's nothing that you're in that you can't get out
So take it in, don't throw it out
And if you got no money in your bank account
Just say

C'est la vie
Come on, baby, let it be
I'll take anything that comes if you'll take me
Oh, oh-oh, now I see
There's no other guarantee
All I gotta hear at night is you love me
Oh, c'est la vie
