I, my, my, my, my (Oh, I) can turn the gray sky blue (I) You see I can make it rain, when I want it to (oh, I) I can build a castle from a single grain of sand (I) You see I can make a ship sail, on dry land tell 'em, yeah I'm unhappy with all the powers I possess, yeah Girl, you're the key to my happiness and I (I can't get next to you, babe) (I can't get next to you) I've been trying a long time (I can't get next to you, babe) I don't know what to do (I can't get next you), ooh-ooh I, my, my, my, my (Oh, I) oh Lord I can fly like a bird in the sky (oh, I) I can buy anything that money can buy (oh, I) Can turn a river into a raging fire (oh, I) And I can live forever if I so desire, yeah I'm unhappy with all the power I possess, yeah, girl 'Cause girl you're the key 'cause (I can't get next to you babe) I've been trying a long time (I can't get next to you) (I can't get next to you babe) (I can't get next to you) oh, come on Let me tell that, I can turn back the hands of time You better believe I can (oh, I) You see I can take the season's change just by waving my hand, let me say (I) I can change anything from old to new girl (oh, I) All the things I want to do the most, you see, I'm unable to do, yeah Unimportant, these things that I'm trying to do here today 'Cause girl, you see, I (Can't get next to you babe) I've been trying a long time (I can't get next to you) Oh, somebody ought a help me (I can't get next to you, babe) Oh, let me, let me go (I can't get next to you), ooh-ooh Let me I, Lord I've been working on it, baby I've been thinking about it (oh, I) But you see, I've been trying to call you all day long But you see I don't have your phone number, honey (I) I've been, I've been, thinking about you baby, something awful You see, I, (oh I), sometimes I feel like I want to moan about it And I, I don't just know what to say about it
