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!
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
You, with the neighbours
I at silly labours
What joys un-tasted
You reading Heine
I, somewhere in China
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 lonely years we've 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
