Cest La Vie Lyrics

I feel safe with you

I got a place with you

And then I look into your face I feel outa place it true

Cuz I see you, reflected I see me

Exposed not protected like I don't wanna be me

But everything will be alright, right?

But will it be all that it can?

If we turn off too many lights, say good night

Let the sunrise dictate our plans

But in the rawness, there's more

Face contorted, heart sore

And I thought if I was honest that you'd like what you saw

I thought if I was all I could be

That you'd come up out of your shell to meet me

Now I'm dropping all my pennies in the well to feel free

Wishing, listen, time will tell, if it's all a fantasy

But I never want to be a replacement

Irreplaceable I'm not for the taking

Insatiable and more than just dating

We could have had it all and never been faking

We could've talked about the future more

Early Days and we're forced to pause

You make a choice with the lines that you draw

Cest la vie, it's unnatural law

Why you gotta choose this now

Don't you know you're gonna lose me now

Be brave enough to have some doubt

Engage and we could talk it out

I got a way with words, and you don't judge

We're both introverts and we've both been hurt

But you're a slave to the swerve and me to the love

We could reverse the curse, we deserve so much

If you'd revealed your love and not just said it

You concealed enough to feel discredit

Lips are sealed but somehow still you fed it

Head's going round and round and you let it

You let us both believe in more

Which got me asking who's the fool

But now we're parting it don't matter no more

We're torn apart by this unnatural law

But I never want to be a replacement

Irreplaceable I'm not for the taking

Insatiable and more than just dating

We could have had it all and never been faking

We could've talked about the future more

Early Days and we're forced to pause

You make a choice with the lines that you draw

Cest la vie, it's unnatural law
