Why do birds suddenly appear
Em Em Am Am

every time you are near
F F Cmaj7 Cmaj7

Just like me they long to be Close to you
F F E7 E7 Em Em Am Am

Why do stars fall down from the sky every time you walk by
F F Cmaj7 Cmaj7 C7 C7

Just like me they long to be Close to you

F F

On the day that you were born the angels got together
Em Em A7 A7

And decided to create a dream come true
F F Am Am Dm Dm

So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
F F G7 G7

and starlight in your eyes of blue
F F E7 E7 Em Em Am Am

That is why all the Girls in town follow you all around

F F Cmaj7 Cmaj7

Just like me they long to be Close to you
F F E7 E7 Em Em Am Am

Why do stars fall down from the sky every time you walk by
F F Cmaj7 Cmaj7 C7 C7

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
