Lyrics

You don't know my name

Baby, baby, baby
From the day I saw you
I really, really wanted to catch your eye
There's something special 'bout you
I must really like you
'Cause not a lot of guys are worth my time
Oooo baby, baby, baby
It's gettin' kinda crazy
'Cause you are takin' over my mind

And it feels like
Ooooooooooooooooooo..
But you don't know my name
I swear..
It feels like
Ooooooooooooooooooo..
You don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go. will you ever know?)

Oh! baby, baby, baby
I see us on our first date
You're doin' everything that makes me smile
And when we had our first kiss
It happened on a thursday
And, ooh, it set my soul on fire
Ooh, baby, baby, baby
I can't wait for the first time
My imagination's runnin' wild

It feels like
Oooooooooooooooo..
You don't know my name
And I swear it, baby
It feels like
Oooooooooooooooooo..
U don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go. will you ever know?)
Will you ever know?

(Spoken)

He don't even know what he's doin' to me
Got me feelin all crazy inside

(Sung)
I'm I'm feelin like...oh!
I'm doin' more than I've ever done
For anyone's attention
Take notice of what's in front of you
'Cause did I mention (oh!)
You're 'bout to miss a good thing?
And you'll never know how good it feels to have
All of my affection
And you'll never get a chance to experience
My lovin' (oh!)
'Cause my lovin feels like..

Ooooooooooooooooooo..
You don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go. will you ever know?)
And I swear it feels like

Ooooooooooooooooooo..

('Round and 'round and 'round we go.(oh..)will you ever know?)

Uh, I feel kinda silly doin this but, uh
This is the waitress from the coffee house on 39th from lenox
You know the one with the braids?
Yeah. well I see you on wedn'sdays all the time
You come in every wedn'sday on your lunch break, I think
And you always order the special...with the hot chocolate
My manager be trippin and stuff talkin 'bout we gotta use water, but..
I always use some milk and cream for you, cause..
I think you're kinda sweet. (laughs)
Anyway, you always got on some fly blue suit
And your cufflinks are shining all bright
So what you do?
Oh word?
Yeah that's interestin'..
Look man, I mean, I don't wanna waste your time but..
I know girls don't usually do this
But I was wonderin' if maybe we could get together
Outside the restaurant one day?
You know 'cause I do look a lot different outside my work clothes and... (laughs)
I mean we could just go across the street to the park, right here..
Wait, hold up, my ph... my cell phone's breakin' up, hold up..
Can you hear me now?
Yeah. so what day did you say?
Oh yeah. thursday's perfect, man

(Sung)
And it feels like
Ooooooooooooooooooo..

('Round and 'round and 'round we go. will you ever know?)
Baby, baby I swear...it's like
Ooooooooooooooooooooooo..
But you don't know my name. no no no-o..
('Round and 'round and 'round we go. will you ever know?)

And it feels like

And I swear on my mother and father, it feels like
