Lyrics
I said wait for your time to come
And we must still stay strong for you
I?ll adore you when you say to me
C?est La Vie
Now choose, be what you are or more
And we are right outside your door
beating down this new key
Is that why you say
C?est La Vie
When you choose to be the last one we can bring you down with me
Forward the news that we are riding slowly beating faster again
