Never Say Die Blaze Of Glory 1990 (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 have a past, 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.

Yeah, we could run like lightening, through the pouring rain,
And we’ll be standing like a solider, 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 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.
