[edit] Slippery When Wet (1986)
- An angel's smile is what you sell
you promise me heaven, then put me through hell.- "You Give Love a Bad Name"
- She says we´ve got to 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- "Living on a Prayer"
- Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night
Tommy whispers: Baby it´s okay, someday- "Living on a Prayer"
- We´ve got to hold on ready or not
You live for the fight when that´s all that you´ve got- "Living on a Prayer"
- saw a man down on lonely street
A broken man who looked like me
And no one knows the pain he's been living
He lost his love and still hasn't forgiven- "Without Love"
[edit] New Jersey (1988)
- What you get ain't always what you see
But satisfaction is guaranteed- "Lay Your Hands on Me"
- only God would know the reasons
but I bet he must have had a plan
cause you were born to be my baby- "Born To Be My Baby"
- You say you've cried a thousand rivers
And now you're swimming for the shore
You left me drowning in my tears
And you won't save me anymore- "I'll Be There For You"
- I can promise you tomorrow
But I can't buy back yesterday- "I'll Be There For You"
[edit] Keep The Faith (1992)
- Sometimes i wish i was blind
Sometimes i wait forever
To stand out in the rain
So no one sees me cryin'
Trying to wash away this pain- "Keep The Faith"
- Baby I want you like the roses
Want the rain
You know I need you
Like a poet needs the pain- "In These Arms"
- now as you close your eyes, know I'll be thinking about you
while my mistress she calls me to stand in her spotlight again
tonight, I won't be alone but you know that don't mean I'm not lonely
I've got nothing to prove
for it's you that I'd die to defend.- "Bed Of Roses"
- If I could choose the way I’ll die
Make it by the gun or knife
'Cause the other way there's too much pain
night after night after night after night- "Dry County"
- I never wanted the stars
I never shot for the moon
I like them right where they are
All I wanted was you
- I Want You
[edit] Cross Road (1994)
- I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme
I know when I die you'll be on my mind- "Always"
- When he holds you close
When he pulls you near
When he says the words
You've been needing to hear
I'll wish I was him, that his words were mine- "Always"
[edit] These Days (1995)

I should have seen the end of summer in your eyes- "This Ain't a Lovesong"
- I didn't have much money so I stole you a rose
- "Bitter Wine"
- Love left me stranded at the station and the last train's gone by
What was once holy water tastes like bitter wine- "Bitter Wine"
- It's a bitch, but life's a roller coaster ride
The ups and downs will make you scream sometimes- "Lie To Me"
- From a second story window, he just jumped and closed his eyes
His mamma said he was crazy - he said mamma "I've got to try"
Don't you know that all my heroes died
And I guess I'd rather die than fade away- "These Days"
- If there's nothing but survival, how can I believe in sin
In a world that gives you nothing, i need something to believe in.- "Something To Believe In"
