Lyrics

Why do (Fmaj7)birds suddenly (Bm7)appear (E)ev'ry (Em7)time you are (Am7)near?

(Fmaj7)Just like me, they long to be (C6)close to (Cmaj7)you.

Why do (Fmaj7)stars fall down from the (Bm7)sky (E)ev'ry (Em7)time you walk (Am7)by?

(Fmaj7)Just like me, they long to be (C6)close to (Cmaj7)(C6)(C7)you.

(F)On the day that you were born,

the angels got together and (Em7)decided to create a dream come (A7)true.

So they (F)sprinkled moondust in your hair of gold and starlight in your eyes of (G)blue.

That is (Fmaj7)why all the boys in (Bm7)town (E)follow (Em7)you all (Am7)around.

(Fmaj7)Just like me, they long to be (C6)close to (Cmaj7)you.

(Fmaj7)Just like me, they long to be (C6)close to (Cmaj7)you.
