Lyrics: Paul Weller - Close to You

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

From 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
And starlight in your eyes of blue

That is why all the guys in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you

From 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
And starlight in your eyes of blue

That is why all the guys in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
Yeah, just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

Oh darling
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
Just like me, they long to be
Just like me, they long to be
Just like me, they long to be
Just like me, they long to be

Wishing On A Star (lyrics)

I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream
To follow where you'll be

And I'm wishing on all the rainbows that I see
wishing on all the people who've, ever been
And I'm wishing on tomorrow, when will it come
And I'm wishing on all the lovin' we've ever done

I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I never thought i'd see
a time when you would be
so far away from home
So far away from me

Just think of all the moments that we'd spent
I just can't let you go from me, you were meant
And I didn't mean to hurt you, but I know
That in the game of lovin' you, i was slow,

I feel it's time for us to make up, baby
I feel it's time for us to get back together
And make the best of things, oh, baby
When we're together, whether or never

I feel it's time for us to make up, baby
I feel it's time for us to get back together
And make the best of things, oh, baby
When we're together, yeah whether or never,

And I'm wishing on a star

And I'm wishing on all the rainbows that I see
wishing on all the people who've ever been
wishing on tommorrow, when will it come
I'm wishing on all the lovin' we've ever done

But I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream
to follow where you been
said I'm wishing on a star
