The Temptations - I Wanna Get Next To You lyrics

I WANNA GET NEXT TO YOU

Writer Norman Whitfield

Copyright 1976

Sittin' here in this chair waitin' on you

Ah, baby, to see things my way

But not a word do you say

You won't even look my way

Girl, I'm spending my dimes, wasting my time

Talking ‘til I'm black and blue

Ah, can't you see

I wanna get next to you

Dreams of you and I go sailing by

Whenever your eyes meet mine

(spoken)You're so fine

And girl you make me feel so insecure

You're so beautiful and pure

Why must you be so unkind

(spoken)and tell me I'm not your kind, blowin' my mind

Girl my money is low and I know

That I can't take you to the fancy places you might wanna go

Still I wanna get next to you

Ah I wanna get next to you

Girl you can bend me, shake me, make me

Whatever it takes to please you I'm willing to do

‘Cause you're my dream come true

I wanna get next to you

I wanna get next to you

I wanna make you mine for all time

I wanna get next to you

I promise I'll never make you blue

I wanna get next to you

I wanna get next to you
