The Carpenters – Close To You (They Long To Be)

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
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 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

What happen to the main character in the song from begining to the end ?
A girl in that song feels very insecure because she values that a man she loves is perfect. Yet
he was always approached by girls as lovely and special as angels. And the girl wanted to be
close to the person she loved. However, he still has an insecure feeling because he feels that
himself is as insignificant as the girls who approach him. So that she felt unworthy to be near
a man and hoped that one day she could be near him.

The message of the song

Don't you just insecure, because that will kill your determination
