Que Sera Sera

I’ve always loved this song

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 young, I fell in love
I asked my sweetheart what lies ahead
Will we have rainbows, day after day
Here’s what my sweetheart said.

Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.

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.

Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.

  2. Why was I expecting this post to be Wendy’s?

    Anyway, that Doris Day was darling. Question: Is there a modern equivalent? Julia Roberts? Gwyneth Paltrow? Beyonce Knowles Z?

  3. You should hear the version of this song by Sly & the Family Stone.  It’s very poignant.

  4. Why do I have a sudden urge to watch “The Man Who Knew Too Much” right now?
