	Paul wrote this song with Michael Jackson in mind. Maybe he had better left it there, instead of recording it by himself. He sings it with a falsetto mostly and it's not bad. The harmonies are terrible to make an exception to the rule (I mean the 'yeah's' after every first two lines of the verses). The guitar solo part is the strongest part of the song and I really like that. After that, it starts to get a little annoying again.	Bobber	April 11, 2012
	A complete shock when I first heard this song, it continues to grow on me and I must now admit that it is, in fact, quite a decent performance. I often think about Denny Laine as a young rocker, a member of the Moody Blues, and wonder if 'in his wildest dreams' he saw himself singing backing vocals to songs like "Mary Had a Little Lamb", "Falling Into the Hands of Love", and "Girlfriend".

Lyrics

Girlfriend I'm gonna tell your boyfriend
Tell him exactly what you're going
Tell him what you do to me
Late at night when the wind is free
Girlfriend

Girlfriend I'm show your boyfriend
Show him the letters I've been saving
Show him how you feel inside
Then our love couldn't be denied
And we're gonna have to tell him
You'll only be a girlfriend of mine

Till the river stop a-flowin'
Till the wind doesn't wanna blow
Till the flowers stop a-growin'
Till my love doesn't want to know

Girlfriend we'd better tell your boyfriend
Tell him exactly what we're doing
Tell him what he needs to know
Or he may never let you go
Yes, we're gonna have to tell him
You'll only be a girlfriend of mine

Till the river stop a-flowin'
Till the wind doesn't wanna blow
Till the flowers stop a-growin'
Till the ocean's a sea of snow.
