(they Long To Be) Close To You Lyrics - Cranberries

Why do birds suddenly appear, every time you are near? 

Just like me, they long to be close to you 

Why do stars fall off 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 

They decided to create a dream come true 

So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair 

And put a starlight in your eyes so 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 

Just like me, they long to be close to you
