Vanessa Lee Carlton (born August 16, 1980 in Milford, Pennsylvania) is an American pop and rock singer, songwriter and pianist best known for the hit song "A Thousand Miles", a single from her platinum-selling debut album Be Not Nobody (2002). Although it is widely respected by her many fans, the follow up to this album, Harmonium, did not fare as well, selling only 179,000 copies. Her third album, tentatively titled "Heroes and Thieves," will be released mid to late 2007.

C'est La Vie Lyrics

Vanessa Carlton

I've been taking what you've given
Now I'm thinkin' I've been livin'
Fantasy of your sweet smile

Sad as blue and blue as only
You can cast the color on me
Can you see my fire rain
Ohh... Ohh...
C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie here am I lonely
C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie here am I lonely without him

Boy you swallow truth like honey
As you spew your lies upon me
Sweet and smooth as it goes down
Ohh... Ohh...
C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie here am I lonely
C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie here am I lonely without him

Oh say you, say me
Say always and forev'
'Ver more I'll be
Your perfect little sugar bride
Oh if you could see,
The truth within our perfect harmony,
Your melody is bringing me down

Ohh... Ohh...
C'est La
C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie here am I lonely
C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie here am I lonely without him
Without him

Boy you swallow truth like honey
