Why do birds suddenly appear   every time you are near?
C         C(add2) C            C(add2) Gmaj9
Just like me,     they long to be      close to you.

Why do stars fall down from the sky every time you walk by?
                                           G9
Just like me, they long to be close to you.

C      C6       Cmaj7    C6       C      C6     Cmaj7  C6
On the day that you were born the angels got to-gether   and
   Bm7                          Bm7/E  E7
de-cided to create a dream come true.
        C(add2)             C
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of
Cmaj7              C6              D
gold and starlight in your eyes of blue.
        C(add2)                  Bsus4 B        Bm7       Em7 Em 
That is why     all the girls in town   follow you all a-round.
C         C(add2) C            C(add2) Gmaj9
Just like me,     they long to be      close to you.
