Can We Talk For A Minute Lyrics
… Last night I
I saw you standing
And I started
Started pretending
I knew you and you knew me too
And just like a Roni
You were too shy
But you weren’t the only
‘Cause so was I
And I’ve dreamed of you ever since
Now I’ve built up my confidence
Girl next
Next time you come my way
I’ll know just what to say
… Can we talk for a minute?
Girl, I want to know your name
Can we talk for a minute?
Girl, I want to know your name
… I started
To write you letters
But I wanted
To be more clever
I wanted to get down and sweet talk you
Hey baby
But just like a baby I could not talk
And I tried to come closer but could not walk
And I think of it every night
How I just could not get it right
If we ever come close again
I know what I’ll say then, yeah
… Can we talk for a minute?
Girl, I want to know your name
Can we talk for a minute?
Girl, I want to know your name
… Oh, girl
One more chance
With you again
I will not let it go
Oh, please
Give me just one more chance
For love, love, love, love
… Can we talk for a minute?
Girl, I want to know your name
Can we talk for a minute?
Girl, I want to know your name
… Can we talk for a minute?
Come on and talk to me baby
Say I want to know
Can we talk for a minute?
Girl, I want to know your name
Can we talk for a minute?
… I said can we talk for a minute
Come on and talk to me baby
See I wanna know
You better tell your name, baby
… Can we talk for a minute?
I said talk to me for a minute
Come and talk for a minute
I wanna know, I wanna know
I wanna know your name
