I can turn the grey sky blue
And I can make it rain
Whenever I want it to
And I can built a castle from a single grain of sand
And 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
And I can buy anything the money can buy
I can turn a river into a raging fire
I can live forever if I so desire
I don't want it, all these 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'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 turn back the hands of time, you better believe I can
I can make the seasons change just by waving my hand
I can change anything from old to new
The thing I want to do the most I'm unable to do
I'm an unhappy woman with all the powers I possess
'Cause man, you're the key to my happiness
'Cause I can't get next to you

You're blowing my mind 'cause I can't get next to you
Can't you see these tears I'm crying, can't get next to you
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

It's you that I need I gotta get next to you
Can't you see these tears I'm crying, can't get next to you
Ah, ah, ah, ah, I can't get next to you.
