Close To You by The Carpenters


I obviously did not grow up hearing The Carpenters music on the radio actually. I was first listened to their songs when i was around 16 or 17. That time i was not exposed to their music directly. When i was watching the movie - So Close last 2 years, i was touched by the angelically beautiful voice of Close To You as one of the soundtrack in the movie. Only then i started to listen back all their songs. Close To You is one of my favourite.

Why do birds
Suddenly appear?
Everytime you are near

Just like me
They long to be
Close to you

Why do stars
Fall down from the sky?
Everytime 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 moondust in your hair
Of gold and starlight 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
