Close To You
Carpenters 1970
  (Shakedown 303)   David Mee
 
two columns

OPENER - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle to the left
Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near?
Left allemande and then you dosado
The men star left
Come on and turn your partner by the right hand round
Left allemande, promenade on down
Just like me, they long to be close to you

FIGURE (Twice for heads, twice for sides)    Mainstream - SSD Week 12, corner progression

Heads promenade halfway around
Walk right in and square thru to 4
Go all the way and then touch 1/4 and now scoot back boys
Boy run right, you star thru, pass thru, trade by
Swing the corner girl, promenade I cry
Just like me, they long to be close to you

MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
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

Allemande left and weave the ring
That is why all the boys in town follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be close to you


(lyrics for Opener and Closer)
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.


(lyrics for Middle Break)
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 boys in town follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be close to you.
