Close to You Lyrics by Ronald Isley

Here I Am: Isley Meets Bacharach

2003

[Verse 1]
Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me
They long to be
Close to you
[Verse 2]
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me
Oh, they long to be
Close to you
[Bridge]
Oh, 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 star light in your eyes of blue
[Verse 3]
And oh, that is why all the guys in town
They follow you, I know they follow you around
Just like mе
Ooh, they long to be
Close to you
Girl, I know, I know you know
Thеy long to be
Close to you
[Outro]
Mmm, so close to you
So close, so close
I wanna be
Just you and me
So close to you
Let's stay close
