Lyrics
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 lotta guys are worth my time
Ooh baby, baby, baby, it's gettin' kind of crazy
'Cause you are takin' over my mind
And it feels like ooh
But you don't know my name
And I swear
It feels like ooh
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
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 ooh
You don't know my name
And I swear it, baby
It feels like ooh
You don't know my name (Round and round and round we go, will you ever know?)
I'm sayin', he don't even know what he's doin' to me
Got me feelin' all crazy inside, I'm feelin' like, ow ooh
Doin' more than I've ever done for anyone's attention
Take notice of what's in front of you
'Cause did I mention, 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'
'Cause my lovin' feels like ooh
You don't know my name (Round and round and round we go, will you ever know?)
And I swear it feels like ooh
You don't know my name, oh (Round and round and round we go, will you ever know?)
Will you ever know it?
Well, I'ma just have to go ahead and call this boy
Hello? Can I speak to, to Michael?
Oh hey, how you doin'?
Uh, I feel kinda silly doin' this but, uh
This is the waitress from the coffee house on 39th and Lennox
You know, the one with the braids?
Yeah, well I see you on Wednesdays all the time
You come in every Wednesday on your lunch break, I think
And you always order the special with the hot chocolate
Look man, I mean, 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
Wait, hold up, 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
And it feels like ooh
You don't know my name (Round and round and round we go, will you ever know?)
And I swear on my mother and father it feels like ooh
You don't know my name (Round and round and round we go, will you ever know?)
