Lyrics
Close to You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near
Just like me, they long to be Close to you
Why do stars start 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
