Album: Friends Collection
So, no one told you life was going to 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 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 when 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
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 the rest with,
someone I'll 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
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
So Jesus told his deciples:
We're gonna go away,
Where I go you know,
They all crowd please explain!
He said: You've all been stuck in 2nd grade,
If you haven't seen the way, the truth, the life,
it's here in your face, but,
I'll Prepare For You!
prepare a place up above,
I'll prepare for you!
Cuz I've been there before,
I'll prepare for you!
prepare for me too...
I'll send another friend
to help you on your way,
you learn from him you'll go far,
please don't be afraid,
The Father help me do the things I did
But you will do even greater works then that if you believe, and,
I'll prepare for you!
prepare a place up above,
I'll prepare for you!
cuz I've been there before,
I'll prepare for you!
so prepare for me too...
The world could never know Him!
The world could not receive Him!
so you're the only ones who know,
what it's like to know Him,
become a place in their plan,
He'll come to live inside you,
so when all of this happens,
you will know the words I say were true! Yeah!
(BRIDGE)
