Never noticed this before Prince/Beyonce lyrics

So Prince's If I Was Your Girlfriend has these lyrics:

Would U run 2 me if somebody hurt U
Even if that somebody was me?
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be

I didn't notice for the lonnnnngest time that these same lyrics are in Bonnie and Clyde:

If I was your girlfriend,
I'll be there for you, if somebody hurts you,
Even if that somebody is me
Yeah-hee (break it down for 'em)
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be

Does anyone know if they needed permission to use those lines? I liked that Bonnie and Clyde song, and that verse has always been my favorite part of the song. I just can't believe that I didn't connect the two until yesterday. DOH!doh!
