I Know His Name (only His Name) Lyrics

Velvelettes I Know His Name (only His Name)

I know his name, but what's a name?
I can't love it, no I can't hug it
I've got his picture, but what's a picture?
It won't speak to me or ease my longing
He has so many girls that he can't the find time
No no no, to even look at me, no no no no no

I dropped my handkerchief, hoping that he would see
But he didn't even look; he just walked on by me
My mind tells me to make a play
But I'm afraid that he'll never look my way
He has so many girls that he can't the find time
No no no, to even look at me, no no no no no

(instrumental)

If I had him, I wouldn't want for anything
As long as I can wear, wear his wedding ring
I'll stop my dreaming & start some scheming
& I'll do anything just to make him my man
But he has so many girls that he can't the find time
No no no, to even look at me, no no no no no

(round, several times):
I know his name, but what's a name
Can't love it, can't hug it
