So no one told you life was gonna be this way
+
Your job's a joke, you're broke
+
Your love life's D.O.A
+
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
+
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month
+
Or even your year, but
+
I'll be there for you
+
(When the rain starts to pour)
+
I'll be there for you
+
(Like I've been there before)
+
I'll be there for you
+
('Cause you're there for me too)
+
You're still in bed at ten
+
And work began at eight
+
You've burned your breakfast, so far
+
Things are going great
+
Your mother warned you there'd be days like these
+
But she didn't tell you when the world has brought
+
You down to your knees and
+
I'll be there for you
+
(When the rain starts to pour)
+
I'll be there for you
+
(Like I've been there before)
+
I'll be there for you
+
('Cause you're there for me too)
+
No one could ever know me
+
No one could ever see me
+
Seems you're the only one who knows
+
What it's like to be me
+
Someone to face the day with
+
Make it through all the rest with
+
Someone I'll always laugh with
+
Even at my worst, I'm best with you, yeah
+
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
+
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month
+
Or even your year
+
I'll be there for you
+
(When the rain starts to pour)
+
I'll be there for you
+
(Like I've been there before)
+
I'll be there for you
+
('Cause you're there for me too)
+
I'll be there for you
+
I'll be there for you
+
I'll be there for you
+
('Cause you're there for me too)
+
