Can I be your girlfriend?      Do you remember?   Remember when just you and me baby   And nothing else exists no, no   Seems like a memory from way back when   But if we were happy before   We can be happy once again, if we      Take the time, do the things   Long before, vows and rings      Before the house, before the kids   Before the history and all the years   Can we take it back again?   Can I be your girlfriend?   Before the fights, before the storms   Before the silence, before this song   Can we take it back to then?   Can I be your girlfriend?      I know you love me from deep within   Just look at our family and the life we've given them   But baby show me the way it is   I'm not just a mother or your other   But a lover and a friend   Oh baby, if we      Take the time, do the things   Long before, vows and rings      Before the house, before the kids   Before the history and all the years   Can we take it back again?   Can I be your girlfriend?   Before the fights, before the storms   Before the silence, before this song   Can we take it back to then?   Can I be your girlfriend?      Remember when we gave   Flirty looks and playful eyes   All night calls and long goodbyes   Sneaking in because it's late   The way we were on our first date   Butterflies and sweaty hands   Summer walks and makin' plans   If we had it once before   Then we can get it back again like before      Before the house, before the kids   Before the history and all the years   Can we take it back again?   Can I be your girlfriend?   Before the fights, before the storms   Before the silence, before this song   Can we take it back to then?   Can I be your girlfriend?      Before the house, before the kids   Before the history and all the years   Can we take it back again?   Can I be your girlfriend?   Before the fights, before the storms   Before the silence, before this song   Can we take it back to then?   Can I be your girlfriend?
