Lyrics & Composition
by
Andreas Lodewijk Schmidt
Yesterday saw you crying
Today you cried again
You say it’s normal
But we both know it really should end
You say that he hurt you
Mean things were said
Going back to him
Again, knocking your head
So hard to see
What can I do
But like Robbie says
I’ll be there for you
It started alright now
Very charming indeed
He turned out a Monster
Taking your light, making you bleed
Caught like a silver fly
In his golden web
Sucking the life out of you
Until you are dead
So hard to see
What can I do
But like Robbie says
I’ll be there for you
Ooooohhh I'll be there for you
Ooooohhh whenever you need
Ooooohhh I'll be there for you
No matter what you do
You’re out of his claws now
How does it feel?
It’s gonna take some time
For your wounds to heal
There will be scars
For you to feel
But one fine day
They won’t be a big deal
Ooooohhh I'll be there for you
Oooooohhh whenever you need
Ooooohhh I'll be there for you
No matter what you do
Ooooohhh I'll be there for you
No matter what you do, oh yeah
Ooooohhh there for you
