Текст песни I Can't Get Next To You (Live At London's Talk of the Town/1970) - The Temptations

Hold it, everybody
Hold it, listen
I can turn the gray sky blue
I can make it rain whenever I want it to
Oh, 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 (I can't get next to you)
Get next to you (I can't get next to you)
I just can't get next you (I can't get next to you)
No matter what I do (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 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 (I can't get next to you)
No matter what I do (I can't get next to you)
Uh-yah
Ooh oh oh oh
Chicka 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 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 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)
