(They Long To Be) Close To You
Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near ?
Just like me, they long to be close to you
Why do stars fall down from the sky every time you walk by ?
Just like me, they long to be close to you
On the day that you were born, the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moondust in your hair of gold
And stardust in your eyes of blue
That is why all the girls in town follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be close to you
Just like me, they long to be close to you
On the day that you were born, the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moondust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue
That is why all the girls in town follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be close to you
Just like me, they long to be close to you
Aaaaah, close to you, aaaaah, close to you, they long to be close to you
Aaaaah, close to you, close to you, aaaaah, close to you
I am close to you, tell you I am close to you, oh
Now that I am close to you, I want to be close to you, close to you
Close to you, aaaaah yeah, I want to be, baby, I want to be, I want to be
I want to be close to you.
