Isn't It A Pity?

Why did I wander

Hereand there and yonder

Wasting precious time

For no reason no rhyme

Isn't it a pity

Isn't it a crime

My journey is ended

Everything is splendid;

Meeting you today

Has given me a wonderful idea

Here's I'll 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

Where you 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 for you and you're for me

And it's such pity we never never never

Met before

It's a long pity we never never

Met before

Isn't It a Pity - Ella Fitzgerald
