[Intro: Barbra Streisand & Burt Bacharach]
If you and I are gonna work together
Now don't you think we ought to talk about billing?
I think we oughta talk about it, yes
What, there should be no problem
I mean, naturally it would say
"Barbra Streisand and Burt Bacharach at the piano"
Burt Bacharach at the piano?
Instead of—well, what do we want?
"Burt Bacharach at the tuba?"
Uh—
Anything you want, Burt, you can have
How about, "Burt and Barbra at the piano?"
Just like this?
Just like this
I love it
I do too
Mmm
[Verse 1: Burt Bacharach]
Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you (Take it away)
[Verse 2: Barbra Streisand, Barbra Streisand & Burt Bacharach]
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Closе to you
[Bridge: Barbra Streisand & Burt Bacharach]
On the day that you were born, thе angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true (Mmm)
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue
[Verse 3: Barbra Streisand, Burt Bacharach, Both]
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you (Woah) all around (Woah)
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
Just like me, they long to be (One)
Close to you
[Outro: Barbra Streisand & Burt Bacharach]
Just like me (Close to you)
They want to be (Close to you)
Just like me (Close to you)
Close to you (Close to you)
How do we end the song?
Guess we'll figure that out later
