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
Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
Whoa, 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
Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
Whoa, livin' on a prayer
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
Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
Whoa, livin' on a prayer
Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
Whoa, livin' on a prayer
