(They Long to Be) Close to You (feat. Tamia)

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?
 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, yes they did
 So they sprinkled moondust in you hair and sunlight in your eyes
 Like they do (like they do), do
 That is why (that is why) all the guys in town (all of the guys)
 Follow you all around
 Just, just, just, just, just like me, they long, they long to be
 Close to you (close to you), baby, ooh baby (ooh yeah)
 If only for a minute (closer), I'll settle for an hour (closer)
 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 pass me by 'cause I'm that kind of guy
 Who's gonna love you (gonna love) and treat you like a queen
 That is why all the girls in town
 They don't mean nothing, baby
 Follow you all around
 I only have asked for you
 (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 (together)
 All the time (together)
 (Close to you)
 I wanna be (I wanna be), I wanna be
 Come a little closer, babe
 Come a little closer, babe
 Lay your head upon my shoulder, babe
 On my shoulder, babe
 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 that
 I can't believe that we're
 Hugging and kissing and squeezing each other
 And I am the one to get close to you
