Just Can’t Seem to Get Next to You

Gerald Alston, Barbara Morr

[Verse 1]
I've been wantin' you for a long time
You become more than 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
Baby it's that you're too close to see

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
Searching all this time for the right way
I still can't find the words to say
And maybe you won't understand
I should reach out and touch your hand
So I keep on hoping desperately

[Chorus]
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

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus Outro]
I just can't seem to get next to you
I don't know what to do
Honey, I can't get through, I can't get through
I just can't seem to get next to you
Don't know why my heart cries
Oh girl I can't get through
Don't pass me by
