Tommy used to work on the docks union's been on strike
He's down on his luck.. it's tough, so tough
We've got to hold on ready or not
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got
Start me up, we're half way there livin' on a prayer
Start me up, we'll make it - I swear livin' on a prayer!

Before you can read me you got to learn how to see me, I said
Stop! In the name of love before you break my heart
Stop! In the name of love before you break my heart
Think it over, think it over.
Free your mind and the rest will follow.
Be color blind, don't be so shallow.

Let's go all the way tonight - no regrets, just love.
We can dance, until we die you and I, will be young forever.
You make me feel like I'm livin' a teenage dream
The way you turn me on I can't sleep, let's run away and
Don't ever look back, don't ever look back
My heart stops, when you look at me
Just one touch now baby I believe this is real
So take a chance and don't ever look back, don't ever look back.
