Lyrics
- When I was just a little boy
I asked my mother, “What will I be?
Will I be handsome? Will I be rich?
Here’s what she said to me
Refrain
“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 - When I grew up and fell in love
I asked my lover, “What lies ahead?
Will we have rainbows day after day?
Here’s what my lover said - Now I have children of my own
They ask their father, “What will I be?
Will I be pretty? Will I be rich?
I tell them tenderly
