What's Your Name?

What’s Your Name?

When I first saw you right in front of me,

Then you came standing next to me;

Mama told me not to talk to strangers,

So I wished to ask you this question,

“Why don’t you put your name tag on?”

So I can know your name;

I know it sounded lame,

But you should know that I’m serious.

I need a man for protection,

Not for possession;

Can you hear my heart stumble?

‘Cuz I don’t know what’s your name.

You left me at the railway,

Didn’t get to sit with you in the train;

I waited for you in the rain,

Why don’t you ever understand?

I need a man for protection,

Not for possession;

Can you hear my heart stumble?

‘Cuz I don’t know what’s your name.

I don’t want a show-off,

I don’t want a rich man;

I don’t want a hot-tempered man,

I don’t want an impatient man,

I don’t want a perfect man,

I don’t want an irresponsible man;

I don’t want a good-looking man,

Who does not have a heart and soul,

For me to hold on to,

I just want a man like you;

Gentle, humble, sweet, romantic, kind, considerate, positive, tough, soft,

When can I meet you again?

Dream on girl ‘cuz I guess I’ll see you no more.

I need a man for protection,

Not for possession;

Can you hear my heart stumble?

‘Cuz I don’t know what’s your name.
