Ne-Yo - Know Your Name

Excuse me
I couldn't help but notice
You noticing me
And I was definitely noticing you
My name is
You know my name
But listen
I have a question

No it ain't like me to drop too hard, no baby
Or go out of my way to know who you are
Say you're not one for chasing
But I'll admit
Something in you
Has got my attention girl
So if I can
Be a gentleman
Can I ask your permission girl

[Chorus]
Said if it's alright with you, baby
Can I know your name, (oh can I know your name)
And maybe call you sometime, yeah baby
Can I know your name, (wanna know your name)
Can I know your name

Looking at you girl I see so much
So much potential for something better than that
Like maybe me and you becoming us
I'm not trying to scare you
But in your eyes
I can see why
People write love songs
And if God allowed
I could see how
I could love you for so long
First things first

If it's alright with you
Can I know your name, can I know your name
And maybe call you sometime, baby, baby
Can I know your name, (I wanna know, know, know)
Can I know your name
Said if it's alright with you
Can I know your name, (can I know your name), said I wanna know your name
And maybe call you sometime, baby, baby
Can I know your name, (wanna know your name)
Can I know your name

Something about you, uh
That makes me wanna know you, mmm
Said I wanna get to know you
I just wanna show you me, whoa babe
Said I really wanna get to know you
See what this thing could be, oh

Baby if it's alright
Can I know your name, (oh can I know you're name)
And maybe call you sometime
Can I know your name, (wanna know your name)
Girl I wanna know, I really wann
Girl if it's alright with you
Can I know your name (can I know your name)
And maybe call you sometime, baby
Can I know your name, (wanna know your name)
Can I know your name, mmm
