barbra streisand - people (live 1994) lyrics

[intro]
anyway, a year later when i was fourteen
i crossed the brooklyn bridge to manhattan
and saw my first broadway show, a dairy of anne frank
i loved it
but i couldn’t afford to see many shows
so, when i was fifteen, i became an usher
and it was a great deal
you got paid four dollars and fifteen cents a show
and got to see it for free
and when i was twenty+one
i actually had a show of my own, funny girl
the composer is here tonight, jule styne
hi, dear jule
isn’t that lovely?
such a great score, i love you
and there’s a song from that show that each time i sing
takes on a different meaning for me
and i’ve been thinking that this has been
a year filled with natural disasters
and it’s amazing how in times of catastrophe
people do come together
forget their differences and help one another
but do we always need a catastrophe
to remind us that we’re all just
[verse 1]
people
people who need people
are the luckiest people in the world
we’re children
needing other children
and yet letting our grown+up pride
hide all the need inside
acting more like children than children

[verse 2]
lovers
are very special people
they’re the luckiest people in the world
with one person
one very special person
a feeling deep in your soul
says you were half, now you’re whole
no more hunger and thirst
first, be a person who needs people
people who need people
are the luckiest people in the world

[instrumental break]

[verse 2]
a feeling deep in your soul
says you were half, now you’re whole
no more hunger and thirst
first, be a person who needs people
people who need people
are the luckiest people in the world
[outro]
thank you
