lyrics

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.
