Finally summer! After a much too wet May, the temperature seems to remember that they are supposed to rise again. I am feeling like sharing a great summer hit of the 80s. Have a fantastic Monday!
Livin’ On A Prayer – Bon Jovi
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 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.”
Whoa, we’re half-way there
Whoa, livin’ on a prayer
Take my hand, 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 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
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
Livin’ on a prayer
We’ve gotta hold on ready or not
You live for the fight when it’s all that you’ve got
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
The lyrics are famous, like the music itself. Thank you for this very good choice, Erika! Best wishes, Michael

One of the best Bon Jovi songs, in my opinion!

Erika, both my wife and daughter love Bon Jovi. They have to be careful when driving and listening as a speeding ticket may result (true story). Keith
