Lyrics to: How Can I Get Next To You - Chapter 8 (1985)

CHORUS

How can I get next to you?
When I've been trying but it's so hard to do.
I wanna be next to you. Right next to you.

VERSE 1

Tellin me your problems.
About how the other guys are hurting you.

I don't mind if you cry on my shoulders. No.
If that's what you need to do.

But you wanna push all my lovin aside.
Baby there is no reason, for you to run up and hide.

CHORUS

How can I get next to you?

And that's the way you want it to be.

Each and every step of the way.
Share my life, share my love forever.
Can't you see I want you to stay.
