Tommy used to work on the docks
Union´s went on strike
He´s down on his luck...it´s tough,ohh so tough
Gina works the diner all day
Working for her man, she brings home her pay
For love - ohhh for love
She says: We´ve got to 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 shout

Ohhhhh We´re half way there
Ohhhhh Livin' On Prayer
Take my hand- we´ll make it - I swear
Ohhhhh Livin' On Prayer

Tommy got a six string in hock
Now he´s holding in what he used
To make it talk - so tough, ohhh so tough
Gina dreams [bad word] away
she cries in the night
he said: Baby it´s okay, someday
We´ve got to 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 shout

Ohhhhh We´re half way there
Ohhhhh Livin' On Prayer
Take my hand- we´ll make it - I swear
Ohhhhh Livin' On Prayer

Ohhhhh We´re half way there
Ohhhhh Livin' On Prayer
Take my hand- we´ll make it - I swear
Ohhhhh Livin' On Prayer
Livin' On Prayer
