mel tormé - isn't it a pity? lyrics
[intro: cleo laine]
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
[verse 1: cleo laine]
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!
[verse 2: mel torme]
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!
[chorus 1: cleo laine, mel torme, both]
imagine all the lonely years we’ve wasted
you with the neighbours
i at silly labours
what joys untasted
you readin’ heine
you somewhere in china
happiest of gals guys i’m sure to be
if you will always say to me
isn’t a pity we never ever met before!
[chorus 2: mel torme, cleo laine]
imagine all the lonely years we’ve wasted
fishing for salmon
losing at backgammon
what joys untasted
my nights were sour
spent with schopenhauer
[outro: mel torme and cleo laine]
let’s forget the past, let’s both agree
that i’m for you and you’re for me
and it’s an awful pity we never, never, never, ever met before!
pity!
