Isn't It A Pity? Songtext / Lyric

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.

Me with the neighbors.

You at silly labors.

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.

And it's such a pity

We never, never met before.



Imagine all the years we've wasted.

Fishing for salmon

Losing at backgammon.

What joys untasted.

Me at the Prado,

You in Colorado.



Happiest of girls I'm sure to be

If only you would say to me

That it's such a pity

We never met before.

What an awful pity

We never, never met before.
