So no one told you life was gonna be this way 

 ______ job's a joke
You're broke
Your love life's D.O.A.
It's like you're  ______ stuck in second gear
When it hasn't  ______ your day, your week, your month, or even your year

[Chorus]

  ______ there for you

(When the rain starts to pour)

  ______ there for you

(Like I've been there before)

 ______ there for you

('Cause you're there for me, too)

You're still in bed at  ______,
and work began at  ______
 You've burned your breakfast
So far,  ______  are goin' great
Your  ______ warned you there'd be days like these

But she didn't tell you  ______ 

the world has brought you down to your knees that

[Chorus]

No one could ever  ______ me
No one could ever see me
Seems you're the only  ______ who knows, what it's like to be me
Someone to face the day with
Make it through all the rest with
Someone  ______ always laugh with
Even at my worst I'm best with you
It's like you're  ______ stuck in second gear
When it hasn't  ______ your day, your week, your month, or even your year

[Chorus]

('Cause you're there for me, too)
