You Don’t Know My Name Lyrics By Alicia Keys

    baby baby baby
    from the day i saw you
    i really really wanna catch your eye
    there’s something special ’bout you
    i must really like you
    there’s 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 ooh ooh ooh
    but 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
    but you don’t know my name
    and i swear it baby it feels like ooh ooh ooh ooh
    but 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 oww ooh ooh 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 oww
    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’ oww

    ’cause my lovin’ feels like ooh
    but you don’t know my name
    ’round and ’round and ’round we go will you ever know
    and i swear it feels like ooh ooh ooh ooh
    but you don’t know my name
    ’round and ’round and ’round we go will you ever know

    post
    will you ever know it
    no no no no no no no

    spoken interlude
    i’m gonna have to just 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 uhh
    this is the waitress from the coffee house on 9th 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
    and my manager be tripping and stuff
    talking ’bout we gotta use water
    but i always use some milk and cream for you
    ’cause i think you’re kinda sweet
    anyway you always got on some fly blue suit
    ‘n your cuff links are shining all bright
    so whatchu do oh word yeah that’s interesting
    look man i mean i don’t wanna waste your time but
    i know girls don’t usually do this
    but i was wondering if maybe we could get together
    outside the restaurant one day
    ’cause i do look a lot different outside my work clothes
    i mean we could just go across the street to the park right here
    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
    but you don’t know my name
    ’round and ’round and ’round we go will you ever know
    baby baby i swear it’s like ooh
    but you don’t know my name no no no
    ’round and ’round and ’round we go will you ever know
    and it feels like ooh
    but 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 ooh ooh ooh ooh
    ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
    ooh ooh ooh
    but you don’t know my name
    ’round and ’round and ’round we go will you ever know
