Isn't It A Pity? Lyrics - Ella Fitzgerald

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 

(bridge) 

It's an awful pity 

We never, never met before
