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 till 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 
(You're so fine) 
And girl you make me feel so insecure 
You're so beautiful and pure, 
Why must you be unkind 
(And tell me I'm not your kind, blowin my mind) 
girl, my, 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 
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 
And I wanna get next to you

I wanna get next to you 
I wanna make you mine (for all the 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
