Lyrics
So no one told you life was gonna be this way

Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's DOA

It's like you're always stuck in second gear

When 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 and 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 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, yeah



It's like you're always stuck in second gear

When it hasn't been your day, your week

Your month, or even your year



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)



I'll be there for you

I'll be there for you

I'll be there for you

Cause you're there for me too

[thingswithwings]

PUPPIESSSSSS this vid is so amazing and full of JOY and SADS and YAY and DOGS and I can't even. What a beautiful beautiful thing to put into the world.

Okay for real though, kuwdora and I were screaming throughout the entire first watch of this vid. I'm so glad you made this the way you did -- there are so many puppy faces, so many feelings, it's uplifting, and… it's just exactly what I was hoping for and more. Your lyrical interpretation is absolutely fantastic and the way the vid progresses is honestly masterful. Anyone can make a vid about puppies, and that is all well and good, but you are telling a clear story here and it's so powerful. I have a lot of feelings.

Okay, specific things: Use of song was perfect. The credits are adorable. I like how the dogs move to the music -- it is awesome puppy choreography! The vet section made me tear up. <3 I love "but you're there for me too" at 1:22 and the section that follows. The POV switch was very clear (especially with the clip that's literally from a dog's point of view at 1:38) and worked super well. Mutually beneficial partnership between doggies and parolees <333 I love the teamwork section, too. Really great internal motion there that hits the beats of the song well. PUPPY BELLIES! The end with the montage of adoptable puppies is super sweet and a smart way to end the vid.

I'm going to watch this a billionty times because it is perfect. Thank you <333333

[longwhitecoats]

I am legit crying. Tears streaming down my face. Humans and dogs being friends! Humans and dogs understanding each other! WAAAHHHH, RIGHT IN THE FEELS. What a gorgeous vid. <333333

[futuransky]

Another one who cried here! This was amazing – great vidderly skill in the service of PUPPIES and the people and dogs that get treated like their lives aren't worthwhile...

[runawaynun]

I AM CRYING SO HARD OH MY GOD

this is everything perfect and beautiful about the show and the people and the dogs, everything wonderful, i can't even handle it. and it's so GOOD like it's not just adorable and heartwrenching, i love the lyric matches, the dogs getting baths and dogs chained up being set free and "the only one who knows what it's like to be me" (which is where i just totally fucking lost it sobbing and i think the people next door probably thought i was being murdered or something). god, i love this vid. this vid is perfect. YOU'RE perfect.

[scintilla10]

[sakana17]

Love this! I love the different sections, with the parolees, Tia & family, the rescues. Everything flows perfectly. It's as moving and uplifting as the show can be, and the song choice is perfect! ♥

[cupidsbow]

Naaaw. That is completely delightful.

[happydork]

WHAT IS THIS SHOW AND WHY AM I NOT WATCHING IT EVERY WAKING HOUR?

(Answers: (1) Pit Bulls and Parolees, it says it right there in the metadata. (2) Because I've made some terrible life choices.)

This is so, so lovely! My heart didn't know whether it wanted to grow ten times or melt into a little puddle of happiness!
