Lyric discussion by PeterGreybe 

Cover art for C'est La Vie lyrics by Emerson, Lake & Palmer

One of the most sensational songs of our time.As to many songs though,the listener has missed the mark by a mile.So many interperet it as a beautiful or tragic love song But instead considerate it as the roller coaster of life. Not just a relationship, but a life time of miniscual moments.

@PeterGreybe Perhaps this brilliant song has a multitude of interpretations. That is its beauty & complexity.

I like your interpretation as well.
