Babyface – Can We Talk lyrics
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
Ohh, 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
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

    A shy guy who just doesn't think he has what it takes to meet the girl of his dreams. He is thinking of ways to approach her only to lose his self confidence at her sight when he tries. As the song progresses he naturally finds the courage to talk to her when he instinctually finds his natural ability to just be himself. He explodes when he eventually taps the depths of his heart where an eruption of confidence is found to reveal the power of his love.
