Never Say Die — текст песни (Jon Bon Jovi)

As we stood there older than men
And younger than the boys (that`s right)
We were as still as the wind
That blows on a hot August night

And you were lonesome as a jukebox
But deadly just the same
I could be as gentle as a newborn
Then spit into the eye of a hurricane

And we knew how to laugh
And we knew how to cry
Yeah, we sure knew how to live
But we don`t ever

Never say die, never say die

I guess you`d say we had a pact
These words we knew so well (that`s right)
Still they remained unspoken
And we`d take them to the fiery gates of hell

Once I was afraid of love
But when it`s your brother those things change
`Cause love is just another word for trust
So hear me when I say

Never say die, never say no
You got to look `em in the eye and don`t let go
When it`s your own blood you`ll bleed
And your own tears you`ll cry
When you`re brought up to believe
That it`s the strong who survive
Never say die

[Guitar solo]

Yeah, and we could run like lightning (we could run like lightning)
Through the pouring rain (through the rain)
And we`ll be standing like a soldier
Who comes marching home again (left, right, left, right)

They ask what it is that I want written (they ask what it is
that I want written)
On the gravestone where I`ll lie (on the gravestone where I`ll lie)
Tell them it`s just my bones that died there (tell them it`s
just my bones that died there)
So save the tears they`ll cry (so save the tears they`ll cry)

My spirit is still riding somewhere`s in this night
And it`s these three words that come to me
As I kiss this world good bye

Never say die, never say no
You got to look `em in the eye and don`t let go
When it`s your own blood you`ll bleed
And your own tears you`ll cry
When you`re brought up to believe
That it`s the strong who survive
Never say die, never say die... (that`s right)
