Lyrics (They Long to be) Close to You [Broadcast 1974] - Carpenters
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
moondust
in
your
hair
of
gold
And
starlight
in
your
eyes
of
blue
That
is
why
all
the
girls
in
town
(Girls
in
town)
Follow
you
(Follow
you)
all
around
(All
around)
Just
like
me,
they
long
to
be
Close
to
you
A-a-aaa
A-a-a-a
A-a-aaa
On
the
day
that
you
were
born
The
angels
got
together
And
decided
to
create
a
dream
come
true
So
they
sprinkled
moondust
in
your
hair
of
gold
And
starlight
in
your
eyes
of
blue
That
is
why
all
the
girls
in
town
(Girls
in
town)
Follow
you
(Follow
you)
all
around
(All
around)
Just
like
me,
they
long
to
be
Close
to
you
Just
like
me
(Just
like
me),
they
long
to
be
Close
to
you
(Wua-a-a-a,
close
to
you)
(Wua-a-a-a,
close
to
you)
(Haa-a-a-a,
close
to
you)
(Wua-a-a-a,
close
to
you)
(Wua-a-a-a,
close
to
you)
(Wua-a-a-a,
close
to
you)
(Wua-a-a-a,
close
to
you)
(Wua)
