If I Was Your Girlfriend

Ooh, woah
Ooh-hoo
Oh yeah
Ooh-hoo

If I was your girlfriend
Would you remember
To tell me all the things you forgot when I was your man?
Hey, hey, when I was your man
If I was your best friend
Would you let me take care of you
And do all the things that only a best friend can, oh, oh
Only best friends can (Ooh)

If I was your girlfriend
Ooh, ooh
If I was your girlfriend

If I was your girlfriend
Would you let me dress you?
I mean, help you pick out your clothes
Before we go out
Not that you're helpless
But sometimes, sometimes
Those are the things that bein' in love's about
And if I was your one and only friend
Would you run to me if somebody hurt you
Even if that somebody was me?
Yeah
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be
Please

If I was your girlfriend
Ooh, oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
If I was your girlfriend

Would you let me wash your hair?
Could I make you breakfast sometime?
Or then, could we just hang out? I mean
Could we go to a movie and cry together
'Cause to me, baby, that would be so fine
Woo-hoo

(If I was your girlfriend)
Baby, can I dress you?
I mean, help you pick out your clothes before we go out
(If I was your girlfriend)
Listen girl, I ain't sayin you're helpless
But sometimes, sometimes
Those are the things that bein' in love's about (Sugar)

Sugar, do you know what I'm saying to you this evening? (Sugar)
Maybe you think I'm being a little self-centered (If I was your girlfriend)
But I, I said I want to be (Sugar)
All of the things (Sugar)
You are to me (If I was your girlfriend)
Surely, surely you can see

Is it really necessary for me to go out of the room
Just because you wanna undress? (If I was your girlfriend)
We don't have to make children to make love
And we don't have to make love to have an orgasm (If I was your girlfriend)
Your body's what I'm all about (If I was your girlfriend)
