Not that you're helpless but sometime, sometime
Only best friends can
If I was your girlfriend listen girl, I ain't sayin' you're helpless
If I was your girlfriend baby can I dress you
Those are the things that bein' in love's about
'Cause to me baby that would be so fine
If I was your girlfriend
If I was your one and only friend
Could I make you breakfast sometime
I mean, help you pick out your clothes before we go out
That bein' in love's about
If I was your best friend would you let me take care of  you
Would you run to me if somebody hurt you
Or then, could we just hang out, I mean
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be please
If I was your girlfriend would you remember?
We don't have to make children to make love

Is it really necessary for me to go out of the room
I, I said, "I want to be all of the things you are to me"
Sugar do you know what I'm saying to you this evening?
I mean, help you pick out your clothes before we go out
If I was your girlfriend would you let me wash your hair?
If I was your girlfriend
Songwriter: Prince Rogers Nelson
If I was your girlfriend
Even if that somebody was me?
To tell me all the things you forgot when I was your man?
Hey, hey when I was your man
Just because you wanna undress?
And do all the things that only a best friend can, oh
Maybe you think I'm being a little self-centered
If I was your girlfriend would you let me dress you
And we don't have to make love to have an orgasm
Could we go to a movie and cry together
But sometime, sometime those are the things
Surely, surely you can see
