If I Was Your Girlfirend Songtext
von Prince

Ooh, whoa
Ooh-whoa
Ooh, ooh

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
Only best friends can? (Ooh)

If I was your girlfriend
Ooh-ooh, 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
Wouldn't 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
Whoa-ooh-ooh


(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) sugar, do you know what I′m sayin' to you this evening?
(If I was your girlfriend) maybe you think I′m being a little self-centred
But I, I said I want to be (sugar, sugar)
All of the things 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
