Close To You
Natsuki Morikawa Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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
And 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 girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you

On the day that you were born
And 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 girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you




Just like me, they long to be
Close to you

Overall Meaning

The song "Close to You" by Natsuki Morikawa is about the intense attraction people feel towards someone they love. The lyrics of the song point to the fact that whenever the person being addressed in the song is around, everything suddenly seems to make sense, just like the way birds come alive at the sight of the person. The stars even seem to fall from the sky because of the overwhelming presence of the person. This reinforces the idea that the person is both magical and powerful.


The lyrics then take a turn, telling the listener that the day the person was born, angels got together and created a dream come true. The person was sprinkled with moon dust and starlight in their eyes, highlighting their unique and wonderful nature. And because of this, all the girls in town follow them around, just like the singer. The repetitive chorus of the song, "Just like me, they long to be close to you," reinforces the idea that everyone is drawn to the person's unique and special energy.
