(They Long To Be) Close To You - The Carpenters
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 moon dust
in your hair of gold
And starlight
in your eyes of blue
That is why all the boys
in town follow you all around
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 moon 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
they long to be close to you
