Isn't It A Pity

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 your neighbours.
 I at silly labours.
 What joys are untasted.
 You reading Heiner,
 I somewhere in China.
 Happiest of girls I'm sure to be
 If only you would say to me
 It's an awful pity
 We never met before.
 Imagine all the lonely years we've wasted.
 You with your neighbors.
 I at silly labours.
 What joys are untasted.
 You reading Heiner,
 I somewhere in China.
 Lets look at the past,
 Let's both agree
 That I'm for you
 And you're for me
 Isn't it a pity
 We never, never met before?
