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

Chorus:
It feels like, ooh
But you don't know my name
And I swear it, baby, it feels like, ooh

But you don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go,

"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!)

Chorus:
'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?)

Will you ever know it?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Will you ever know it?

Chorus:
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?)
