[Intro]
Ooh, woah
Ooh-hoo
Oh yeah
Ooh-hoo

[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
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)

[Refrain]
If I was your girlfriend
Ooh, ooh
If I was your girlfriend

[Verse 2]
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
[Refrain]
If I was your girlfriend
Ooh, oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
If I was your girlfriend

[Breakdown]
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

[Verse 3]
(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)

[Breakdown]
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
[Spoken Outro]
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)
