So no one told you life was gonna be this way Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's DOA 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 You're still in bed at ten and work begins at eight You've burned your breakfast, so far things are going great Your mother warned you there'd be days like these When the world beats you up and you're just left down on your knees 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 Even at my worst Even at my worst, I'm best with you Even at my worst, I'm 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 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
