Que Sera, Sera Lyrics
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
[Chorus]
"Que será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be"
[Verse 2]
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:
[Chorus]
"Que será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be"
[Bridge]
Now I have children of my own
They ask their mother, "What will I be?
Will I be handsome? Will I be rich?"
I tell them tenderly
[Chorus]
"Que será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be"
[Outro]
Que será, será
Now I have children of my own
They ask their mother, "What will I be?
Will I be handsome? Will I be rich?"
I tell them tenderly
[Chorus]
"Que será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be"
[Outro]
Que será, será
