So no one told you life was gonna be like this
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 mouth or even your year
But, I'll be there for you (when the rains 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 the world has brought you down to your knees
That 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 the 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)
