[Verse 1]
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, oh
[Verse 2]
If I was your best friend
Would you let me
Take care of you
And do all the things that only best friends can?
Oh – only best friends can (Ooh!)
[Chorus]
If I was your girlfriend
Shoo, oh, ooh-hoo, aw
If I was your girlfriend
[Verse 3]
If I was your girlfriend
Would you let me dress you?
I mean, help pick out your clothes
Before we go out
Not that you're helpless
But sometimes
Sometimes, those arе the things
Bein' in love's about
[Verse 4]
If I was your onе and only friend
Would you run to me if somebody hurt you?
Even if that somebody was me?
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be
Please! Ow!
[Chorus]
If I was your girlfriend
Uh-ah, oooh-hoo-hoo
If I was your girlfriend
[Bridge]
Would you let me wash your hair?
Could I make you breakfast sometime?
Could I just hang out with you, girl?
Go to the movies and cry together?
'Cause to me, baby, that would be so fine
[Chorus]
(If I was your girlfriend) – Woo!
Baby, can I dress you?
Can I help pick out your clothes
Before we go out
(If I was your girlfriend)
Listen, child – not sayin' you're helpless
But sometimes, sometimes
Those are the things that bein' in love's about
Sugar
Sugar, I don't want you think I'm being self-centered this evening
I just wanna be... I just wanna be...
(If I was your girlfriend... shoo-ooh...)
All the things you are to me
Sure do... sure do
(If I was your girlfriend... shoo-ooh...)
(If I was your girlfriend... shoo-doo...)
(If I was your girlfriend... shoo-doo-doo...)
(If I was your girlfriend... shoo-doo-doo...)
(If I was your girlfriend... shoo-doo-doo...)
(If I was your girlfriend... shoo-doo-doo...)
(If I was your girlfriend... shoo-doo-doo...)
