I Can't Get Next to You
I
Dennis: Can turn the greyest sky blue.
Melvin: I can make it rain, whenever I want it to.
Oh, I
Eddie: I can build a castle from a single grain of sand.
Paul: I can make a ship sail, uh, on dry land.
Dennis: 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. (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
Dennis: Can fly like a bird in the sky.
Eddie: Hey, and I can buy anything that money can buy.
Oh, I
Paul: I can turn a river into a raging fire.
Melvin: I can live forever if I so desired.
Eddie: 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-ya

Dennis: I can turn back the hands of time, you better believe I can.
I
Otis: I can make the seasons change, just by waving my hand.
Oh, I
Eddie: I can change anything from old to new.
Paul: The things I want to do the most, I'm unable to do.
Dennis: Unhappy am I with all the powers I possess.
'Cause girl you're the key to my happiness.
Eddie: And I
Can't get next to you.
