Lyrics (They Long to Be) Close to You - The Cranberries

Why do birds suddenly appear, every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be close to you
Why do stars fall off 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
They decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair
And put a starlight in your eyes so blue

That is why all the girls in town
Follow you, all around
Just like me, they long to be close to you

Just like me, they long to be close to you
Just like me, they long to be close to you

Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha
Close to you
Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha
Close to you
Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha, ah-ha-ha-ha-ha
Close to you
Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha, ah-ha-ha-ha-ha
Close to you
Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha, ah-ha-ha-ha-ha
Close to you
Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha, ah-ha-ha-ha-ha
Close to you
