Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Isn't it a pity
Isn't it a shame
How we break each other's hearts
And 'cause each other pain
How we take each other's love
Without thinking anymore
Forgetting to give back
Isn't it a pity
[Verse 2]
Some things take so long, but how do I explain?
When not too many people
Can see we're all the same
And because of all their tears
Their eyes can't hope to see
The beauty that surrounds them –
Now isn't it a pity
[Verse 3]
Isn't it a pity
Isn't it a shame
How we break each other's hearts
And cause each other pain
How we take each other's love
Without thinking anymore
Forgetting to give back
Now isn't it a pity
