Beautiful people
You live in the same world as I do
But somehow I never noticed
You before today
I’m ashamed to say
Beautiful people
We share the same back door
And it isn’t right
We never met before
But then
We may never meet again
If I weren’t afraid you’d laugh at me
I would run and take all your hands
And I’d gather everyone together for a day
And when we’re gather’d
I’ll pass buttons out that say
Beautiful people
Never have to be alone
'Cause there’ll always be someone
With the same button on as you
Include him in everything you do.
Beautiful people
You ride the same subway
As I do ev’ry morning
That’s got to tell you something
We’ve got so much in common
I go the same direction that you do So if you take care of me Maybe I’ll take care of you
Beautiful people
You look like friends of mine
And it’s about time
That someone said it here and now
I make a vow that some time, somehow
I’ll have a meeting
Invite ev’ryone you know
