Текст песни I Can't Get Next to You (Live) - 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, babe (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, 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 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, babe (no matter what I do)
I can't get next to you, uh-yeah

Ooh, woo, ooh, woo
Ooh, woo, ooh, woo
Chicka boom, chicka boom
Chicka boom, boom, 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)
