V1:
isn’t it a pity?
now, isn’t it a shame?
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
isn’t it a pity?
V2:
some things take so long
but how do i explain?
when not too many people
can see we’re all the same
and because of all their tears
their eyes can’t hope to see
the beauty that surrounds them
isn’t it a pity?
