If I only had two dollars in my pocket
And a polaroid picture of you and me
Would it be enough to build up a rocket
And sail off to space where you could see
Could it be
We'd be a couple thousand miles away from Paris (Paris)
What can I say but c'est la vie (c'est la vie)
Would it be okay if we could dance here (dance here)
Spinning away from gravity (gravity)
And I know we could dance among the stars
Until the daybreak, there's loving in our hearts
Where everybody else could see
The stars were made for you and me
And we would soar above the clouds
Shouting out loud but they wouldn't hear a sound
What could I even say
Nothing but c'est la vie
At some point we'd fall through the atmosphere (falling through the atmosphere)
Like diamonds raining from the sky (diamonds raining from the sky)
But baby please just don't disappear (disappear)
While I watch the sunset in your eyes (in your eyes)
We could fly so high
And I know we could dance among the stars
Until the daybreak, there's loving in our hearts
Where everybody else could see
The stars were made for you and me
And we would soar above the clouds
Shouting out load but they wouldn't hear a sound
What could I even say
Nothing but c'est la vie (c'est la vie)
