Just when you think you know where you stand
Just when you feel secure
Someone walks in and changes all your plans
Right when you had your feet on the ground
And finally self-assured
Somehow it all just slips right through your hands

Where can you run
When the walls of your dreams
Come tumblin' down
And where can you run
When the world you believed in
Has broken its vow
When you don't know where to turn
You can believe
I'll be there for you
The way you were for me

Just when you havе the game figured out
And mastеred all the moves
Someone walks in and changes all the rules
And where are the people
You thought were your friends
After they heard the news
Funny how fast they turn their backs on you
Where can you run
When the walls of your dreams
Come tumblin' down
And where can you run
When the ones you believed in
Are nowhere around
When you reach out of your darkness
You will see
I'll be there for you
The way you were for me

Oh, when you don't know where to turn
You can believe
I'll be there when hope has disappeared
In your darkest hour of need
I'll be there for you
The way you were for me
