I Can't Get Next to You
oh i, i can turn a grey sky blue
you see i can make it rain when i want to
oh yes i, i can build a castle from a single grain of sand
you see i, i can make a ship sail on dry land
let me say i can fly like a bird in the sky
i can buy anything that money can buy
i can turn a river into a raging flood
i can live forever if i so decide
but i can't get next to you babe
no, i can't get next to you babe
no, i can't get next to you babe
no, i can't get next to you babe
let me tell you i, i can turn back the hands of time
oh you better believe i can, oh yes yes
i can make the seasons change just by waving my hand
let me say i, i can change anything from old to new girl
oh yes i can
oh i can do anything that i want to girl
oh yes indeed
but i'm not happy
oh no i'm not
with all the powers i possess
'cause you hold the key
oh yes, yes, yes
to my happiness
and i can't next to you babe
no, i can't get next to you babe
no, i can't get next to you babe
no, i can't get next to you babe
and i've been working on it
oh yes i have
such a long, long time
and i've been thinking about it
oh yes i have
such a long, long time
you see i can make it rain when i want to
oh yes i, i can build a castle from a single grain of sand
you see i, i can make a ship sail on dry land
let me say i can fly like a bird in the sky
i can buy anything that money can buy
i can turn a river into a raging flood
i can live forever if i so decide
but i can't get next to you babe
no, i can't get next to you babe
no, i can't get next to you babe
no, i can't get next to you babe
let me tell you i, i can turn back the hands of time
oh you better believe i can, oh yes yes
i can make the seasons change just by waving my hand
let me say i, i can change anything from old to new girl
oh yes i can
oh i can do anything that i want to girl
oh yes indeed
but i'm not happy
oh no i'm not
with all the powers i possess
'cause you hold the key
oh yes, yes, yes
to my happiness
and i can't next to you babe
no, i can't get next to you babe
no, i can't get next to you babe
no, i can't get next to you babe
and i've been working on it
oh yes i have
such a long, long time
and i've been thinking about it
oh yes i have
such a long, long time
