Tommy used to work on the docks
Union went on strike, he's down on his luck
Gets 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 gotta hold on to what we've got
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-oh, we're half way there
Oh-oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear
Oh-oh, livin' on a prayer
When Tommy do his six-string in hock
Now he's holding in what he used to make it talk
So tough, so tough
Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night, Tommy whispers
"Baby it's okay, it's okay, someday"
We've gotta hold on to what we've got
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-oh, we're half way there
Oh-oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear
Woah-oh, livin' on a prayer
We're living on a prayer
They say "We've gotta hold on ready or not"
You live for the fight when it's all you got
And I say "Whoa, we're half way there"
Woah-oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear
Woah-oh, livin' on a prayer
He knows... we're halfway there
Oh-oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear yeah
Oh-oh, livin' on a prayer
