Isn't It a Pity (Live)

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 journeys ended

everything is splendid

meeting you today

has given me a wonderful idea

here i stay

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 you wasted

fishing for salmon

losing at backgammon

what joys un-tasted

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

it's an awful pity

we never, never met before
