I'd write you a letter
A million lines long
But I sharpened my pencil
And all the lead was gone
So I'd paint you a picture
Something pretty like you
But out of all the colors
All I had was blue
Uh oh
How in the world am I ever gonna reach you
So many different channels, yet nothin' that'll turn you on
How am I s'pose to get where I'm supposed to be
When I'm supposed to be
Close to You
I tried to call you
On your telephone
The voice that answered
He said you weren't at home
So I gave up trying
Instead, I wrote this song
Maybe, one day
You'll be here to sing along
Oh no
How in the world am I ever gonna reach you
So many different channels, yet nothin' that'll turn you on
How am I s'pose to get where I'm supposed to be
When I'm supposed to be
Close to You
How in the world am I ever gonna reach you
So many different channels, yet nothin' that'll turn you on
How am I s'pose to get where I'm supposed to be
When I'm supposed to be
Close to You
