Lyrics

Life is a river
carving out it's path beside the green and grassy hills until it flows
into the sea
je ne regretted rien
I'm not sorry
and when I'm hurled into the midst of darkness like a quicksand
swallowing my mind and none can know my pain
je ne regretted rien
I regret nothing
I could turn my feet around and then
retrace my steps back to the warn
and beaten path from where I came
no one would know what I'd betrayed
or ever say I was to blame
ah, but if we make the choice our own
or choose the choice that's handed us
still the risk of living is the same
je ne regretted rien
so I press onward
and when i'm in the place they call the grave and someone else will write my epitaph who knows what they will say
I say je ne regretted rien
no regrets, life
life is a river carving out it's path beside the green and grassy hills until it flows into the sea
life is what it is; and we are part of life je ne regretted rien
i'm not sorry no regrets
