Artist: Bon Jovi Lyrics
Song: 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
'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

[Chorus:]
Whooah, we're half way there
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear
Livin' on a prayer

Tommy's 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

[Chorus]

We've got to hold on ready or not
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got

[Chorus]


Probablly my favorite song

I'm listening to These Days right now, I love the beautiful lyrics, I like the begining verse the most, "everybody's got their cross to bare this days..."

one of the songs I find to have some of the greatest lyrics is Someday I'll be Saturday night
"Tuesday just might go my way
It can't get worse than yesterday
Thursdays, fridays ain't been kind
but somehow I'll survive
Hey man I'm alive!
I'm taking each day and night at the time
yea I'm down but I know I'll get by
hey! hey! hey! man I gotta live my life!
like I ain't got nothing but this roll of the dice
I'm feeling like a monday but someday I'll be saturday night"

I used to listen to it when I felt really down, some years ago... now I don't really get depressed anymore, but I still like listening to the song just to keep in mind life is life and I should face it with lots of energy and putting all my heart in what I do... blaugh

Living in sin, first verse heart



that line in bold letters is the best to me biggrin

it truly is! amazing heart

heart heart heart

Lyrics
I spent 20 years trying to get out of this place
I was lookin' for something I couldn't replace
I was runnin' away from the only thing I've ever known

Like a blind dog without a bone
I was a gypsy lost in the twilight zone
I hijacked a rainbow and crashed into a pot of gold

I've been there, done that, I ain't lookin' back
The seeds I've sown, saving dimes, spending too much time on the telephone...
Who says you can't go home...

Who says you can't go home
There's only one place they call me one of their own
Just a hometown boy, born a rolling-stone
Who says you can't go home
Who says you can't go back, been all around the world and as a matter of fact
There's only one place left I want to go
Who says you can't go home
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright..

I went as far as I could, I tried to find a new face
There isn't one of these lines that I would erase
I left a million miles of memories on that road

And every step I take, I know that I'm not alone
You take the home from the boy, but not the boy from his home
These are my streets, the only life I've ever known
Who says you can't go home

Who says you can't go home
There's only one place they call me one of their own
Just a hometown boy, born a rolling-stone
Who says you can't go home
Who says you can't go back, been all around the world and as a matter of fact
There's only one place left I want to go
Who says you can't go home

[Guitar Solo]


It doesn't matter where you are, doesn't matter where you go
If it's a million miles aways or just a mile up the road
Take it in, take it with you when you go
Who says you can't go home

Who says you can't go back, been all around the world and as a matter of fact
There's only one place left I want to go
Who says you can't go home
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright..
Who say you can't go home
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright..
Who say you can't go home
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright..
Who says you can't go home

my two favorite songs are Bad Medicine and you give love a bad name.

"Blaze Of Glory"

I wake up in the morning
And I raise my weary head
I got an old coat for a pillow
And the earth was last night's bed
I don't know where I'm going
Only God knows where I've been
I'm a devil on the run
A six gun lover
A candle in the wind
When you're brought into this world
They say you're born in sin
Well at least they gave me something
I didn't have to steal or have to win
Well they tell me that I'm wanted
Yeah I'm a wanted man
I'm colt in your stable
I'm what Cain was to Abel
Mister catch me if you can
I'm going down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I'm going down in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
I'm no one's son
Call me young gun
You ask about my consience
And I offer you my soul
You ask If I'll grow to be a wise man
Well I ask if I'll grow old
You ask me if I known love
And what it's like to sing songs in the rain
Well,I've seen love come
And I've seen it shot down
I've seen it die in vain
Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
'Cause I'm going down in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
I'm the devil's son
Call me young gun
Each night I go to bed
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
No I ain't looking for forgiveness
But before I'm six foot deep
Lord,I got to ask a favor
And I'll hope you'll understand
'Cause I've lived life to the fullest
Let this boy die like a man
Staring down the bullet
Let me make my final stand
Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I'm going out in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
and I'm no one's son
Call me young gun
I'm a young gun

I've been listening to Bon Jovi for as long as i can remember. My Mother would play their songs around the clock, still does but now days my sister and i join in. 'Blaze Of Glory' is the first song i remember hearing. So for that reason its a very special song to me ^^
I can tell you now i'll be listening to Bon Jovi well into the winter of my years, they are just so amazing!!!
