Sometimes the last thing you want comes in 1st, sometimes the 1st thing you want never comes....

A line from the song 'Strange and Beautiful' by Aqualung.

The song is strange and beautiful too. Don't know by reminded me of 'A Midsummer Night’s Dream' (at least I think that is the one). Maybe it was written for that play (/movie) or was inspired by it.

Anyway the line is brilliant - happens only too often.

But the beauty and strangeness of it is that life goes on and we move on and face more instances of - 'the last thing you want comes in 1st, the 1st thing you want never comes'
