I know that he hurt you
I know that he broke your heart in two
For while you were loving him
He was mistreating you like a fool
I can't believe he's made you cry
I can't believe he's let you down once more
But honey you can count on me
Because that's what friends are for, yeah
And I'll be there when the rain starts to fall
Yes I'll be there to comfort you through it all
And I'll be there
'Cos that's what friends are for
I'll take the stars out of the sky for you
Because that's what friends are for
I'll file my life if you ask me to
Because that's what friends are for
You know anything you need I'll get for you
Because that's what friends are for
All that we've been through
You can count on me to stand by you
I know what your thinking
But you musn't let him back again
You've got find another love
A love that wouldn't treat you that way
One day you'll get over him
One day all the pain and the hurting
Will stop, stop
But until then my friend
You can cry till the last tear drop
And I'll be there to wipe away your tears
Yes I'll be there, collect your shattered dreams
And i'll be there

And when I think about all the bad stuff that he put you through
