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 we've wasted
You with the neighbors
I at silly labors
What joys untasted
You readin' Heine
Me 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 untasted
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
