I Know His Name (Only His Name)

Holland-Dozier, Freddie Gorman, Lamont Dozier, Brian Holland

[Verse 1]
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
Won't end my longing

[Chorus]
He has so many girls
That he can't find the time
No, no, no, to even look at me
No, no, no, no, no

[Verse 2]
I drop 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

[Chorus]
He has so many girls
That he can't find the time
No, no, no, to even look at me
No, no, no, no, no

[Verse 3]
If I had him
I wouldn’t want for anything
As long as I can wear
Wear his wedding ring
Gonna stop my dreaming
And start some scheming
And I’ll do anything
Just to make him my man

[Chorus]
'Cause has so many girls
That he can’t find the time
No, no, no, to even look at me
No, no, no, no, no

[Bridge]
I know his name (Can't love it)
But what's a name (No, I can't hug it)
I know his name (Can’t love it)
But what's a name (No, I can't hug it)
I know his name (Can't love it)
But what's a name (No, I can't hug it)
I know his name (Can't love it)
But what's a name (No, I can't hug it)
I know his name
