I'll Be There for You by the Rembrandts Song Lyrics
So no one told you life was going to be this way.
Your job's a joke, you're broke, you're love life's DOA.
It's like you're always stuck in second gear,
Well, 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, the 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.
No one could ever know me, no one could ever see me.
Seems like 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 best with you.
It's like you're always stuck in second gear,
Well, 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.

As the very first lines speak right away, "So no one told you life was going to be this way. Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's DOA," one can relate to those struggles and failures everybody has to deal with sooner or later. This is a song about all the troubles of adult life that is rather trifling in nature and so is quite relatable.
Regarding the fifth line, within this 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" —it simply means friends are always there when you need them. It means assurance that no matter how challenging life might get, friends will remain a standing, immovable support; they will be firm and a consistent source of empowerment and consolation.
It is further an exploration of the idea of understanding and acceptance. "No one could ever know me, no one could ever see me. Seems like you're the only one who knows what it's like to be me." This line enforces a deep understanding of one another between friends when one values someone who really gets them. "I'll Be There for You" is not just a very sweet, catchy melody but a great reminder of what true friendship is worth. It celebrates the idea that, at least when life gets hard, the support, laughter, and love among friends can withstand all. That universal meaning of the song might be the biggest reason why it stayed in the hearts of many for years and why it brings back an air of nostalgia and coziness, making it an ode to friendship at any age.
