"I Know" is a song by American R&B singer Dionne Farris. Written by Milton Davis and William DuVall, it was released in January 1995 as the first single from Farris' debut album, Wild Seed – Wild Flower (1994). The song was a hit in Farris's native United States, peaking at number four on the Billboard Hot 100 and spending 10 consecutive weeks at number one on the Billboard Top 40/Mainstream chart, becoming that ranking's most successful song of 1995.

Outside the US, "I Know" reached number one in Canada, where it was the 19th-most-successful single of the year. It also achieved top-40 placings in Australia, France, Iceland, New Zealand, and Scotland.
