can t get next to you

Rolling Stones

(Whitfield/Strong)

I can turn your gray sky blue
I could make it rain whenever I wanted to
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
Next to you, I just 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
I can turn a river into a raging fire
I could live forever if I so desired
Unimportant are all these things I can do
Cause I can t get next to you
No matter what I do

I can turn back the hands of time
You d better believe I can
I can make the seasons change
Just by a wave of my hand
I can change anything from old to new
The thing 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, wo, I can t get next to you

Girl, you re blowin my mind cause I can t get (next to you)
Can t you see these tears I m cryin ? I can t get (next to you)
Girl, it s you that I need; I gotta get (next to you)
