(They Long To Be) Close To You lyrics by Gerald Levert

Hoo hoo
Yeah yeah yeah

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? Ho
Just like me they long to be
Close to you, oh yeah
(Yeah)

On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
Yes, they did

So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair
And starlight in your eyes
Like they do, do
(Like they do)

That is why
(That is why)
All the guys in town
(All of the guys)
Follow you all around
(Ooo yeah)
Just, just, just, just, just like me
They long, they long to be close to you, baby
(Close to you, ooo yeah)
Ooh, baby

If only for a minute, I'll settle for an hour
And if you could stay just for one day
That would make me so happy, happy, baby

See, it won't hurt to give a love a try
(No, no)

Girl, don't you past me by
'Cause I'm that kind of guy
(Yeah yeah yeah)
Who's gonna love you and treat you like a queen
(Gonna love, ooo)

That is why all the girls in town
(They don't mean nothing, baby)
Follow you all around
(I only have asked for you, girl)
Just like me
(Just like me)
They long to be close to you
(Close to you)
I can feel it whenever we touch
And whenever we talk and whenever we walk

All the time, ho
I wanna be
(I wanna be)
I wanna be
Hoo
(Hoo)

Come little closer, baby
(Come a little closer, baby)
Lay your head upon my shoulder
(On my shoulder, baby)

Boy, you know I can't deny it
(Girl, you know I can't deny it)
You done gone and set my soul on fire, baby
(How I love to be closer to you, baby)

Oh, I can't believe
(I can't believe that we're)
Hugging and kissing and squeezing each other
And I am the one to get close to you
