Cilla Black - (They Long To Be) Close To You Lyrics

Cilla Black Lyrics

"(They Long To Be) Close To You"
(originally by Richard Chamberlain)

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 of gold
And starlight in your eyes of 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

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 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
Ah, ah-ah-ah, close to you
Ah, ah-ah-ah, close to you
