Can We Talk?The Whispers

Songwriter: Babyface

Baby, all I want to
Is talk to you

Last night I, I saw you standing I started, started pretending
I knew you, you knew me too
And just like a Roni you were too shy
But you weren't the only one, so was I

And I dreamed of you ever since
Now I build up my confidence
And 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 sit 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
Oh, if we ever come close again
I know what I'll say then

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, ooh 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?
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?
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?
Girl, I want to know your name
Can we talk for a minute?
Girl, I want to know your name
