Once upon a time not so long ago:
Tommy used to work on the docksunion's been on strike
He's down on his luck - It's toughso tough.
Gina works the diner all dayworking for her man
She brings home her pay for lovefor 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 toughit's tough.
Gina dreams of running awaywhen she cries in the night
Tommy whispers: Babyit's okaysomeday.
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. . .
