Just Can’t Seem to Get Next to You Songtext
von The Manhattans

I′ve been wanting you for a long time
You've become more than a friend of mine
No matter what you say or do
In my heart I know that I love you
You don′t seem to know the change in me
Maybe it's that you're too close to see

Oh, I just can′t seem to get next to you
I don′t know what to do, I can't get through
Oh, I just can′t seem to get next to you
Don't know why my heart cries
But please, don′t pass me by


Searching all this time for the right way
I still can't find the words to say
And maybe you won′t understand
If I should reach out and touch your hand
So I keep on hoping desperately
You will be the one to come to me

Oh, I just can't seem to get next to you
I don't know what to do, I can′t get through
Oh, I just can′t seem to get next to you
Don't know why my heart cries
But please, don′t pass me by

Oh, oh, I can't
I can′t get next to you, baby
Don't know what to do
Honey, I can′t get through, I can't get through
So hard I try
Ooh girl, I can't get through
I just can′t get through to you
But I′ll keep trying, baby
Oh yeah yeah, don't pass me by
Don′t you, don't you know, baby
