Chances Are / It's Not for Me to Say Songtext
von The Ray Conniff Singers

When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, "What will I be?
Will I be pretty? Will I be rich?"
Here′s what she said to me

"Que Sera, Sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be"

When I was just a child in school
I asked my teacher, "What should I try?
Should I paint pictures? Should I sing songs?"
This was her wise reply

"Que Sera, Sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future′s not ours to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be"


When I grew up and fell in love
I asked my sweetheart, "What lies ahead?
Will we have rainbows, day after day?"
Here's what my sweetheart said

"I give to you, and you give to me
True love, true love
So on and on it will always be
True love, true love
For you and I have a guardian angel on high
With nothing to do
But to give to you and to give to me
Love forever true"

"For you and I have a guardian angel on high
With nothing to do
But to give to you and to give to me
Love forever true"

Now, we have children of our own
They ask their mother, "What will I be?
Will I be pretty? Will I be rich?"
We tell them tenderly


"Que Sera, Sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be"
