von The Temptations

Worum geht es in dem Song?

Der Songtext "I Can't Get Next to You" von The Temptations handelt von jemandem, der alles Mögliche tun kann, aber immer...

Hold it, everybody
Hold it, 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

Next to you
I just can't get next 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

No matter what I do
Uh-yah

Ooh
Ooh
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)]
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
