Eels - If I Was Your Girlfriend lyrics

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
If I was your girlfriend
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

If I was your one 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

If I was your girlfriend
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

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
