Never Say Die — текст песни (Bon Jovi and Jon Bon Jovi)

J. 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 them 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

Solo

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

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

My spirit is still riding somewhere
Somewhere in this night
When it`s these three words that come to me
As I kiss this world goodbye

Never say die
Never say no
You got to look them 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
