They Long to Be Close to You Lyrics


Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me
They long to be close to youWhy do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me
They long to be close to youOn 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
And golden starlight in your eyes of blueThat is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me
They long to be close you youOn 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
And golden starlight in your eyes of blueThat is why all the girls in town

Follow you all around
Just like me
They long to be close you
Oh, just like me
They long to be close to you
Baby, baby, baby
They long to be so close to you

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Carmen Mercedes McRae (1920-1994) was a U.S. jazz singer, songwriter, and pianist. McRae was born in Harlem, New York, on the 8th April 1920, and studied piano as a child. As a teenager she came to the attention of Teddy Wilson and his wife, the composer Irene Kitchings Wilson. Through their influence, one of McRae’s early songs, "Dream of Life", was recorded by Wilson’s longtime collaborator Billie Holiday.
