Learn the secrets of kings and queens Famous lovers interpret dreams Powerful nations return to the dust Fearful passion on pride and lust Trace the borders, so many lines Maps and orders, land for our lives Wild adventures and daring escapes Paid assassins and the widows they make Sail away, say goodbye C'est la vie - don't you cry Sail away, say goodbye C'est la vie - don't you cry Sound of fury, their battle cry Brave or crazy, they surely will die Another child lies in his mother's arms Warm and cosy, no need for alarm Don't be alarmed Cold and ragged with icy feet On these supposed golden streets Where eyes pillage the answers of time Rise determined to answer their cry Sail away, say goodbye C'est la vie - don't you cry Sail away, say goodbye C'est la vie - don't you cry
