Walking down the street
A chance, a chance to meet
The man who stole my tender heart away
Smile at friendly hi,
But he just walked on by,
Oh, my blue sky sun lit turned to grey
Why cant' I get next to you
I wish I knew what I could do
Why cant' I get next to you, baby
I wish I knew what I could do
I wish I could touch the sun
To do the things that you want done
I keep your eyes wide open trying to see, yeah
I guess I'll have to find a way,
To say the things I want to say,
To make you stop and trying this search for me
Why cant' I get next to you
I wish I knew what I could do
Why cant' I get next to you, baby
I wish I knew what I could do
Why, why can't I, why can't I?
Why can't I get next to you?
Why I wish I knew what I could do
I gotta get, I gotta get next to you
I gotta get, I gotta get, I gotta get
I gotta get next to you
I was running fast to catch your dream
In my eyes a mystic gleam
Love is not a sure like nursery rhyme
And darling I know I could be here
Anything you ask of me
All I want is once in a moment's time
Why cant' I get next to you
I wish I knew what I could do
Why cant' I get next to you, baby
I wish I knew what I could do
Why can't I get, why can't I get?
Why can't I get next to you?
I wish I knew what, I wish I knew what,
I wish I knew what, I could do
Why can't I get, why can't I get,
Why can't I get next to you?
I wish I knew what, I wish I knew what,
I wish I knew what, I could do
Why can't I get, why can't I get,
Why can't I get next to you?
I wish I knew what, I wish I knew what,
I wish I knew what, I could do
I got to get, I got to get, I got to get next to you
I got to get, I got to get, I got to get next to you
Why can't I get, why can't I get, why can't I get next to you?
I wish I knew what, I wish I knew what,
I wish I knew what, I could do
Why, o why, o why, o why, why, why
Why can't I get next to you,
I wish I knew what I could do
Why can't I get, why can't I get,
Why can't I get next to you?
I wish I knew what, I wish I knew what,
I wish I knew what, I could do
