(x4) I can turn the grey sky blue And I can make it rain Whenever I want it to And I can build 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 youbabe) I can't get next to you I can't get next to youbabe I can't get next to you (x2) I can fly Like a bird in the sky I can buy anything That money can buy I can turn a river into a raging fire I can live forever if I so desire But 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 youbabe) I can't get next to you I can't get next to youbabe I can't get next to you I can't get next to you babe I can't get next to you (x4) I can turn back the hands of time You better believe I can I can make the seasons change Just by the wave of my hand I can change anything from one to two The thing I wanna 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 to next to you Ooh 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 Oh it's you that I need I gotta get next to you Can't you see these tears I'm cryin' Can't get next to you IIIIII Can't get next to you IIIIII Can't get next to you

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque un sentiment de désespoir face à l'incapacité d'être proche de la personne aimée, malgré les nombreux pouvoirs et accomplissements que l'on peut avoir. L'interprète énumère des réalisations impressionnantes, mais souligne que rien de cela ne compte vraiment si elle ne peut pas établir cette connexion essentielle avec l'autre. Ce contraste met en lumière la profondeur de son besoin affectif, rendant sa frustration encore plus palpable. Dans ce même ordre d'idée, il apparaît que l'amour est la clé de son bonheur, et que sans cette relation intime, même les plus grandes capacités semblent vides de sens. La chanson nous montre ainsi la fragilité des liens humains face à nos désirs et à nos attentes.
