Tiger's in the kitchen
And the dogs are with your mom
Sitting in your room
Nothing to do, the TV's on
And for a time I forget
Whatever made me upset
And you were there for me
You were there
And you didn't have to be
I wish I'd told you what it meant
When I needed a friend
You were there for me
Rest easy
Helicopter seeds
Sent spiraling across the lawn
Listening to Paul McCartney
Ringo, George, and John
Middle school's a scary place
But in your home I felt safe
And you were there for me
You were there
And you didn't have to be
I wish I'd told you what it meant
When I needed a friend
You were there for me
Rest easy
What do I know?
What do any of us know?
What do I know?
What do any of us know?
And you were there for me
You were there
And you didn't have to be
I wish I'd told you what it meant
When I needed a friend
You were there for me
Rest easy
Rest easy
Rest easy
Rest easy
