Jerry Butler - (They Long To Be) Close To You lyrics
rate meFeaturing Brenda Lee Eager<br />
<br />
You know, baby<br />
I used to get awful mad every time<br />
I saw someone out with you<br />
I really did<br />
<br />
But I've been loving you so long now<br />
That I really can kinda understand<br />
And so when I see them digging you<br />
I just smile and say<br />
<br />
I know why birds suddenly appear<br />
Every time you come near<br />
Just like me, they long to be<br />
Close to you<br />
<br />
Why do stars fall down from the sky<br />
Every time you walk by<br />
Just like me, ooh, they<br />
Long to be close to you<br />
<br />
On the day that you were born<br />
The angels got together<br />
They decided to make<br />
A dream come true<br />
<br />
So they sprinkled moon dust<br />
In your hair, to my baby<br />
I love you<br />
<br />
That's why all the guys in town<br />
Follow you around<br />
Just like me, they long to be<br />
Close to you. yes, they do<br />
Just like me, they long to be<br />
Close to you<br />
<br />
Sing it from the song<br />
Just like me (just like me)<br />
They long to be (they long to be)<br />
Close to you<br />
<br />
Say it one more time, baby<br />
Just like me (just like me)<br />
Just like me, just like me<br />
They long to be (they long to be)<br />
Close to you<br />
<br />
Sing it like I wanna moan one time<br />
Ooh, ooh, close to you<br />
Ooh, ooh, close to you<br />
Say it one more time, baby<br />
Ooh, ooh, close to you<br />
<br />
Every day of my life<br />
Ooh, ooh, close to you
