living on a prayer

tek kelimeyle olağanüstü bir bon jovi şarkısı.

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
’cause 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.

we’re half way there - livin’ on a prayer

take my hand and we’ll make it
i swear - livin’ on a prayer.

tommy got his six string in hock.
now he’s holding in what he used to make it talk -
so tough
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 . . .
we’re half way there - livin’ on a prayer
. . .

we’ve got to hold on ready or not

you live for the fight when it’s all that you’ve got.

we’re half way there - livin’ on a prayer
. . .
we’re half way there - livin’ on a prayer
. . .
we’re half way there - livin’ on a prayer
. . .
