Isn’t It a Pity

Lyrics

[Verse] Why did I wander Here and there and yonder Wasting precious time For no reason or rhyme? Isn't it a pity? Isn't it a crime? My journey's ended Everything is splendid Meeting you today Has given me a Wonderful idea Here I stay! [Chorus] It's a funny thing I look at you I get a thrill I never knew Isn't it a pity We never met before? Here we are at last It's like a dream The two of us A perfect team Isn't it a pity We never met before? Imagine all the lonely years we've wasted Fishing for salmon Losing at backgammon What joys untasted My nights were sour Spent with Schopenhauer Let's forget the past Let's both agree That I'm for you And you're for me It's an awful pity We never, never met before!
