(they Long To Be) Close To You Lyrics - Great American Songbook 1 - Carmen Mcrae

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 

And golden starlight in your eyes of blue
