I Can't Get Next to You

I can turn a gray sky blue

I can make it rain, whenever I want it to

(Oh I)

I can build a castle from a single grain of sand

I can make a ship sail on dry land

But my life is incomplete and I'm so blue

'Cause I can't get next to you

I can't get next to you, babe

(Next to you)

I can't get next to you

(I just can't get next you)

I can't get next to you, babe

I can't get next to you

I can fly like a bird in the sky

Hey, I can buy anything that money can buy

(Oh, I)

I can turn a river into a ragin' fire

I can live forever, if I so desire

Unimportant, are all these things I can do

'Cause I can't get next to you

I can't get next to you, babe

(No matter what I do)

I can't get next to you

I can turn back the hands of time, you better believe I can

I can make the seasons change just by a wave of my hand

(Oh, I)

I can change anything from old to new

The things I want to do the most, I'm unable to do

Unhappy am I with all the powers I possess

'Cause girl, you're the key to my happiness

And I, I, I

Can't get next to you

Girl, you're blowing my mind 'cause I can't get

(Next to you)

Can't you see these tears I'm crying? I can't get

(Next to you)

Girl, it's you that I need, I gotta get

(Next to you)

Can't you see these tears I'm crying? I can't get

(Next to you)

I, I, I, I, I can't get

(Next to you)

I, I, I, I, I can't get

(Next to you)

Girl, you're blowing my mind
