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
Sometime the only one who knows what its like to be me
Someone to face the day with, make it through all the mess with
Someone I'll always laugh with, even under the worst I'm best with you
Solo: Starts when the word 'you' is sung:
