[Sang in concert 14.09.1970]
Why do birds suddenly appear
Everytime you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Everytime 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 moondust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue
That is why all the girls (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 moondust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue
That is why all the girls (boys) in town
Follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you Just like me (just like me)
They belong to be
Close to you.
Wahhhhhh, close to you
Wahhhhhh, close to you
Hahhhhhhh, close to you
Lahhhhhhh, close to you.
