C'est la vie, Lily

That's life, Lily
When you walk through the city streets
Everyone admires you and your smiles
And your youth makes the soldiers dream

That's life, Lily
When you walk through the city streets
You're so beautiful, not very faithful
Too often you flirt with the soldiers

Time spins, spins, it goes by
In your eyes before your mirror
But you, you don't see it passing by

That's life, my Lily
When you walk through the city streets
Selling roses or something else
But you give so many nights to the soldiers

Time spins, spins, it goes by
In your eyes before your mirror
But you, you don't see it passing by

That's life, my Lily
When you sleep in the city streets
You're getting old, do you remember
That once you made the soldiers dream

Time spins, spins, it goes by
In your eyes before your mirror
But you, you don't see it passing by
