Melanie Safka Beautiful People

Melanie Safka. Beautiful People (live, London, England, recorded 14/7/1971, broadcast 8/1/1972). From the 1969 album, Affectionately Melanie.

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 gathered
I'll pass buttons out that say
Beautiful people
Then you'd 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 every 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 everyone you know
I'll pass out buttons to the ones who come to show
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
He may be sitting right next to you
He may be beautiful people too
And if you take care of him
Maybe I'll take care of you
And if you take care of him
Maybe I'll take care of you .... Beautiful people

[xDemonzay]

melanie is one of the most beautiful people of her time



[netotube2008]

thanks; it is one of my favourite songs. I heard it first in a woodstock record. Really beautiful people.

[378agra]

It's a beautiful song always followed her successes

Too bad here in my country it is well known. unfortunately

melanie has not the voice he had when he started. Save to your songs and style of life he carries in his hometown

heart touching song! thank you beautiful Mel!

[oldgeezerman1]

A stage, a single chair, a mike and nothing but wonderful talent. No glitter, no dancing, no ego centric video, and yes, no overt sexual sensuality to her perormances.

Wow, what a fantastic time. Thanks for posting this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
