c'est la vie
lady's Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Des yeux qui font baisser les miens
Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche
Voilà le portrait sans retouches
De l'homme auquel j'appartiens

Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas
Je vois la vie en rose
Il me dit des mots d'amour
Des mots de tous les jours
Et ça me fait quelque chose

Il est entré
Dans mon cœur, une part de bonheur
Dont je connais la cause
C'est lui pour moi, moi pour lui dans la vie
Il me l'a dit, l'a juré pour la vie

Et dès que je l'aperçois
Alors je sens en moi mon cœur qui bat

Would anybody like some French tips tonight?

C'est lui pour moi, moi pour lui dans la vie
Il me l'a dit, l'a juré pour la vie

Alors je sens en moi




La vie
En rose

Overall Meaning

These lyrics are from the song "La Vie En Rose" by Edith Piaf, which has been covered by many artists including Lady Gaga. The lyrics describe the feelings of being in love and how it can change one's perspective on life. The line "des yeux qui font baisser les miens" translates to "eyes that make mine lower" or "eyes that make me lower my gaze," suggesting the power or intensity of the love being felt. The line "je vois la vie en rose" translates to "I see life in pink," which is a French expression for seeing life through a rose-colored or optimistic lens.


The lyrics continue with the singer describing how her lover speaks softly to her and uses words of love, which make her feel something special. The line "il est entré dans mon cœur, une part de bonheur" translates to "he entered my heart, a part of happiness," which again emphasizes the power of love and the impact it can have on one's life. The final lines repeat the sentiment that the two are for each other in life, and that seeing each other makes their hearts beat with excitement and love.
