(They Long to Be) Close to You Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you

[Verse 2]
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you

[Bridge]
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

[Verse 3]
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close you you

[Bridge]
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
[Verse 3]
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close you you

[Outro]
Oh, just like me
They long to be close to you
Baby, baby, baby
They long to be so close to you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
