Lyrics (They Long To Be) Close To You - feat. Tamia - Gerald Levert
Yea,
yea,
yea
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
Yeah
Ooh,
yeah
On
the
day
that
you
were
born,
the
angles
got
together
And
decided
to
create
a
dream
come
true,
yes
they
did
So
they
sprinkled
moon
dust
in
you
hair
and
sunlight
in
your
eyes
Like
they
do
Like
they
do
do
Do
That
is
why
That
is
why
All
the
guys
in
town
All
of
the
guys
Follow
you
all
around
Just,
just,
just,
just,
just
like
me
they
long,
they
long
to
be
Close
to
you
Close
to
you
Baby,
ooh
baby
Ooh
yeah
If
only
for
a
minute,
I'll
settle
for
an
hour
And
if
you
could
stay
just
for
one
day
That
would
make
me
so
happy,
happy
baby
See
it
won't
hurt
to
give
a
love
a
try
No,
no
Girl
don't
you
pass
me
by
'Cause
I'm
that
kind
of
guy
Who's
gonna
love
you
Gonna
love
And
treat
you
like
a
queen
That
is
why
all
the
girls
in
town
They
don't
mean
nothing
baby
Follow
you
all
around
I
only
have
asked
for
you
Just
like
me
Just
like
me
They
long
to
be
close
to
you
Close
to
you
I
can
feel
it
when
ever
we
touch
And
whenever
we
talk
and
whenever
we
walk
All
the
time
Close
to
you
I
want
to
be
I
want
to
be
I
want
to
be
Come
a
little
closer
babe
Come
a
little
closer
babe
Lay
your
head
up
on
my
shoulder,
babe
On
my
shoulder,
baby
Boy
you
know
I
can't
deny
it
Girl
you
know
I
can't
deny
it
You
done
gone
and
set
my
soul
on
fire,
baby
How
I
love
to
be
closer
to
you
baby
Oh,
I
can't
believe
I
can't
believe
that
we
are
Hugging
and
kissing
and
squeezing
each
other
And
I
am
the
one
to
get
close
to
you
