歌手:Nina Simone
专辑:《The Essential Nina Simone》

Isn't it a pity
You don't know what I'm talking about yet
But I will tell you soon
It's a pity
Isn't it a pity
Isn't it a shame
Yes, how we break each other's hearts
And cause each other pain
How we take each other's love
Without thinking anymore
Forgetting to give back
Forgetting to remember
Just forgetting and no thank you
Isn't it a pity
Some things take so long
But how do I explain
Why not too many people can see
That we are all just the same
We're all guilty
Because of all the tears
Our eyes just can't hope to see
But i don't think it's applicable to me
The beauty that surrounds them
Child, isn't it a pity
How we take each other's love
The most precious thing
Without thinking anymore
Forgetting to give back
Forgetting to keep open our door
But understands some things take so long
How do i explain
Why not too many people
Can't see we're all the same
Because all that tears
Our eyes can't hope to see
The beauty that surrounds them
God, isn't it a pity
The beauty that surrounds us
And we don't see it
We've been, been just the same
In program that way
Isn't it a pity
If you wanna feel sorry, isn't it a pity
Isn't it a pity
The beauty that, the beauty that surrounds us
Because all our tears
Our eyes can't hope to see
Maybe I've been this, I'll see me
And just concentrate on givin', givin', givin', givin'
And till that day
Mankind don't stand a chance
Don't know nothin' about romance
Everything is plastic
Isn't it a pity
My God.
