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 Oh, we're half way there Whoah, livin' on a prayer Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear Whoah, 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 '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 Oh, We're half way there Whoah, Livin' On A Prayer Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear Whoah, Livin' On A Prayer Livin' on a prayer We've got to hold on ready or not You live for the fight when that's all that you've got Oh, we're half way there Whoah, livin' on a prayer Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear Whoah, livin' on a prayer Oh, we're half way there Whoah, livin' on a prayer

I wonder what would happen if I fell Would you pick me up and be my wishing well If I shared my secrets would you promise not to tell I wonder what would happen if I fell I wonder what would happen if I smiled Would you be the mystery in my eyes I'll consent to marry you if you never lie And I wonder what would happen if I smiled Looking for a sign in the eyes of love Waiting for an answer from the stars above Would you be my story when there's nothing left to tell I wonder what would happen if I fell Would you be the rockinghorse I ride If I showed no fear and held you like a child Running through the darkness till there's morning in the sky Would you be the rockinghorse I ride Then I ride, ride, you can be my rockinghorse, so giddy-up I said ride ride, ride ride, I said ride ride

You promised a lifetime, but left in a moment I wonder if you even think about me Throw me a lifeline because I'm barely floating Stranded and broken You know you got me lost in the dark Is it too late? Is it too late for us? You know you got me lost in my heart Is it too late? Is it too late for us? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away Just to let me go Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo You look like an angel Thought I was in heaven But I'm just falling without you with me I thought I was able to learn from my lessons Was trying my best but You know you got me lost in the dark Is it too late? Is it too late for us? You know you got me lost in my heart Is it too late? Is it too late for us? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away? Just to let me go? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Ohhhh I'll never love again, I'll never love again Ohhhh I'll never love again, I'll never love again Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away? Just to let me go? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo
