In a little cafe a La Rue Du Soleil She happened to sit down beside me And sipping my tea made it easy to see Something was misplaced inside of me
[Chorus:] Is she looking at me? Is she there behind the wall? Is she made out of what's to be? Meaning is she there at all? In that little cafe I heard somebody say: 'Pardon Monsieur, may I have a light?' And starting to smile, I was changing my style She smiled back, it seemed only right
[Chorus 2x] She's looking past me At someone who's walking past me C'est la vie. C'est la vie [Repeat and fade]
