(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 bone dust 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 (just like me), they long to be (they long to be) close to you
So close, so close, so very close to you
Just like me (just like me), they long to be (I say they long to be) close to you
So very close, so very close
