The Temptations I Can't Get Next to You (Single Version) lyrics

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
I can't get next to 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
I can turn a river into a raging fire
I can live forever if I so desired

Unimportant are all the things I can do
'Cause I can't get next to you

I can't get next to you, babe
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 waving 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, oh 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
