Lyrics: Eddy Arnold. They Long To Be Close To You.

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 moondust in your hair
And golden 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


On the day that you were born...
Just like me they long to be close to you
Just like me they long to be close to you
