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 fall I'll be there for you When you're begging to let me go I'll be there for you Cause you're there for me too You're still in bed at 10 and work again at 8 You've burned your breakfast so far but things are going great Your mother warned you there'd be days like these But she didn't tell you where the world's from You're down to your knees And I'll be there for you When the rain starts to fall I'll be there for you When you're begging to let me go 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 in my worst my best with you 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 fall I'll be there for you When you're begging to let me go 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
