The Temptations - I Can't Get Next to You (Single Version) [Mono] Lyrics

Lyrics I Can't Get Next to You (Single Version) [Mono] - The Temptations



(Hold, everybody)
(Hold it, hold it, listen)
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, huh, on dry land
But my life is incomplete and I′m so blue
'Cause I can′t get next to you
Can't get next to you, babe (get next to you)
Can't get next to you (I just can′t get next to you)
Can′t get next to you, babe
I can't get next to you
I can fly like a bird in the sky
Hey, and I can buy anything that money can buy (oh I)
I can turn a river into a raging fire
I can live forever if I so desire
Unimportant are all the things I can do
′Cause I can't get next to you
Can′t get next to you, babe (no matter what I do)
Can't get next to you, ah, yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Tick-a-boom, tick-a-boom
Tick-a-boo-boo-boom
I can turn back the hands of time, you better believe I can
I can make the seasons change, just by waving my hand (oh I)
I can change anything from old to new
The thing 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, oh I, 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 'cause I can′t get...
