Lyrics

[00:09.880] Why do birds suddenly appear
[00:16.300] Everytime you are near?
[00:22.060] Just like me, they long to be
[00:27.310] Close to you
[00:31.410] Why stars fall down from the sky
[00:38.020] Everytime you walk by?
[00:43.890] Just like me, they long to be
[00:49.090] Close to you
[00:54.640] On the day that you were born
[00:57.230] The angels got together
[00:59.570] They decided to create a dream come true
[01:04.540] So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair
[01:08.060] And put a starlight in your eyes so blue
[01:13.460]
[01:15.140] That is why all the girls in town
[01:21.250] Follow you, all around
[01:26.880] Just like me, they long to be
[01:32.070] Close to you
[01:36.520]
[01:59.340] On the day that you were born
[02:01.820] The angels got together
[02:04.250] They decided to create a dream come true
[02:09.160] So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair
[02:12.560] And put a starlight in your eyes so blue
[02:17.940]
[02:19.300] That is why all the girls in town
[02:25.480] Follow you, all around
[02:31.300] Just like me, they long to be
[02:36.360] Close to you
[02:40.370]
[02:41.950] Just like me, they long to be
[02:48.490] Close to you
[02:55.490]
[03:04.860] Close to you...
[03:15.550] Close to you...
[03:26.410] Close to you...
[03:30.220]
