Bon Jovi – Livin' On A Prayer Lyrics
Once upon a time
Not so long ago
Tommy used to work on the docks
Union's been on strike
He's down on his luck, It's tough
So tough
Gina works the diner all day
Working for her man
She brings home her pay for love
For love
She says, «We've got to hold on to what we've got
It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not
We've got each other and that's a lot for love
We'll give it a shot»
[Chorus:]
Ohh! We're half way there
Oh-oh! Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand
We'll make it I swear
Oh-oh! Livin' on a prayer
Tommy's got his six string in hock
Now he's holding in
When he used to make it talk, so tough
Ooh, it's tough
Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night
Tommy whispers, «Baby it's okay, someday»
We've got to hold on to what we've got
It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not
We've got each other and that's a lot for love
We'll give it a shot
[Chorus:]
Ohh! We're half way there
Oh-oh! Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand
We'll make it I swear
Oh-oh! Livin' on a prayer
Livin' on a prayer
Ooh, we've got to hold on
Ready or not
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got
[Chorus(x2):]
Ohh! We're half way there
Oh-oh! Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand
We'll make it I swear
Oh-oh! Livin' on a prayer
Ohh, We're half way there…
