Lyrics: So no one told you life was gonna be this way ^{Four claps} 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 CHORUS: 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) Then, the extended version continues with: 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 when the world has brought you down to your knees CHORUS BRIDGE: 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 will 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, but CHORUS
