Lyrics
Why do birds suddenly appear, ev'ry time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be close to you
Why do stars fall down from the sky, ev'ry 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 moon dust in your hair of gold
And star-light in your eyes of blue
That is why all the girls in town follow you all around
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 moon dust in your hair of gold
And star-light in your eyes of 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
Wah, close to you
Wah, close to you
Ah, close to you
Wah, close to you
Writer(s): Burt Bacharach, Hal David
