It's just like a short film
That we made
'Cuz the lighting was right
And we had the whole day
Press record and press play
You played your part a little too well
I got caught up
In the "kiss but don't tell"
Press record and press play
And we said "C'est la vie"
It's our life and our world
In the night we are free
To forget tomorrow
I should've followed the script
Left when the movie was through
I should've saved myself the grief
Should've said goodbye to you
But I'm stubborn and I'm blind
Wasted breath, wasted time
I guess I'll never learn
Until I feel the burn
Rewind, rewind, rewind, rewind, rewind, stop
And we said "C'est la vie"
It's our life and our world
In the night we are free
To forget tomorrow
