Bon Jovi

Bon Jovi is an American hard rock band from Sayreville, New Jersey. Fronted by lead singer and namesake Jon Bon Jovi, the group originally achieved large-scale success in the 1980s. Over the past 25 years, Bon Jovi has sold over 120 million albums worldwide.

Bon Jovi formed in 1983 with lead singer Jon Bon Jovi (born John Francis Bongiovi, Jr.), guitarist Richie Sambora, keyboardist David Bryan, bassist Alec John Such, and drummer Tico Torres. Other than the departure of Alec John Such in 1994 (which pared the lineup down to a quartet), the lineup has remained the same for the past 25 years. After two moderately successful albums in 1984 and 1985, the band scored big with Slippery When Wet (1986) and New Jersey (1988), which sold a combined 19 million copies in the U.S. alone, charted eight Top Ten hits (including four number one hits), and launched the band into global super stardom. After non-stop touring, the band went on hiatus after the New Jersey Tour in 1990, during which time Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora both released successful solo albums. In 1992, the band returned with the double platinum Keep the Faith and has since created a string of platinum albums throughout the 1990s and 2000s.

In 2006, the band won a Grammy for best Country Collaboration for "Who Says You Can't Go Home" with Jennifer Nettles from Sugarland and also became the first rock band to reach on the Hot Country Songs chart with the same song. The band has also received multiple Grammy nominations for music from the albums Crush, Bounce, and Lost Highway.

Throughout their career, the band has released ten studio albums, of which nine have gone platinum in US. In addition, the band has charted 19 singles to the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100, five of which reached - "You Give Love a Bad Name", "Livin' on a Prayer", "Bad Medicine", "I'll Be There for You" and Jon Bon Jovi's solo hit "Blaze of Glory". The band also holds the record for the most weeks for a hard rock album at on the Billboard 200 with Slippery When Wet, as well as the most Top 10 singles from a hard rock album, with New Jersey, which charted five such singles.

These days Lyrics

Artist(Band) : J.B.Jovi, R.Sambora



I was walking around, just a face in the crowd try to keep myself out of the rain
Saw a vagabond king wear a styrofoam crown wondered if I might end up the same
There's a man out on the corner, singing old songs about change everybody got their cross to bare, these days.

She came looking for some shelter with a suitcase full of dreams
To a motel room on the boulevard I guess she's trying to be James Dean
She's seen all the disciples and all the 'wanna be's' no one wants to be themselfs these days
Still there's nothing to hold on to but these days

Chorus
These days the stars ain't out of reach - These days there ain't a ladder from the streets oh no no
These days are fast, nothing lasts in this graceless age - There ain't nobody left but us these days

Jimmy shoes busted both his legs, trying to learn to fly
From a second story window, he just jumped and closed his eyes
His momma said he was crazy - he said momma "I've got to try" Don't you know that all my heroes died
And I guess I rather die f f f fade away - yeah

Chorus
These days the stars ain't out of reach But these days there ain't a ladder from the streets oh no no
These days are fast, nothing lasts it's a graceless age - Even innocence has caught the midnight train
There ain't nobody left but us these days

Bridge
I know Rome's still burning though the times have changed
This world keeps turning round and round and round and round these days


Chorus
These days the stars ain't out of reach But these days there ain't a ladder from the streets oh no no
These days are fast, nothing lasts it's a graceless age - Even innocence has caught the midnight train


Chorus
These days the stars ain't out of reach But these days there ain't a ladder from the streets oh no no
These days are fast, nothing last there ain't no time to waste - There ain't nobody left to take the blame

There ain't nobody left but us these days
There ain't nobody left but us these days

Keep The Faith Lyrics

music by J.BonJovi, R.Sambora & D.Child


Mother mother tell your children that their time has just begun
I have suffered for my anger, there are wars that can't be won


Father father please believe me I am laying down my guns
I am broken like an arrow forgive me forgive your wayward son


(Everybody needs somebody to love) mother mother (Everybody needs somebody to hate) please believe me
Everybody's bitching 'cause they can't get enough and it's hard to hold on when there's no one to lean on

Chorus
Faith! You know you're gonna live thru the rain Lord you got to keep the faith
Faith! Don't let your love turn to hate right now we got to keep the faith
Keep the faith, keep the faith Lord we got to keep the faith


Tell me baby when I hurt you do you keep it all inside
Do you tell me all's forgiven and just hide behind your pride


(Everybody needs somebody to love) mother mother (Everybody needs somebody to hate) please believe me
Everybody's bleeding 'cause the times are tough and it's hard to be strong when there's no one to dream on

Chorus
Faith! You know you're gonna live thru the rain Lord you got to keep the faith
Faith! You know it's not to late right now we got to keep the faith
Faith! Don't let your love turn to hate Lord we got to keep the faith
Keep the faith, keep the faith Lord we got to keep the faith



Walking in the footsteps of society's lies I don't like what I see no more, sometimes I wish that I was blind
Sometimes I wait forever to stand out in the rain so no one sees me cryin' trying to wash away the pain


Mother father there's things I've done I can't erase every night we fall from grace
It's hard with the world in your face, trying to hold on, trying to hold on.

Chorus
Faith! You know you're gonna live thru the rain Lord you got to keep the faith
Faith! Don't let your love turn to hate right now we got to keep the faith
Keep the faith, Keep the faith try to hold on, trying to hold on
Faith! Keep the faith, Keep the faith try to hold on, trying to hold on
...

In These Arms Lyrics

Artist(Band) : Bon Jovi



You want committment take a look into these eyes
They burn with fire, just for you now until the end of time
I would do anything; I'd beg, I'd steal, I'd die
To have you in these arms tonight


Baby I want you like the roses; want the rain
You know I need you; like a poet needs the pain
I would give anything; my blood my love my life.
If you were in these arms tonight

Ref
I'd hold you, I'd need you, I'd get down on my knees for you
And make everything alright if you were in these arms
I'd love you, I'd please you, I'd tell you that I'd never leave you
And love you till the end of time if you were in these arms tonight


We stared at the sun and we made a promise
A promise this world would never blind us
These are my words our words were our songs
Our songs are our prayers these prayers keep me strong it's what I believe
If you were in these arms tonight

Ref

Your clothes are still scattered all over our room this old place still smells like your cheap perfume
Everything here reminds me of you and there's nothing that I wouldn't do to be in your arms

And these were our words They keep me strong

Ref

I'll Be There For You Lyrics

Artist(Band) : BON JOVI

I guess this time you're really leaving
I hear your suitcase say goodbye
and as my broken heart lies bleeding
you say true love is suicide.

You say you 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'm praying to God you'll give me one more chance girl.

CHORUS:
I'll be there for you
these five words I swear to you
when you breathe I wanna be the air for you
I'll be [G]there for you.
I'd live and I'd die for you
I'd steal the sun from the sky for you
words can't say what love can do
I'll be [G]there for you.


I know you we've had some good times
now they have thir own hiding place
I can promise you tomorrow
but I can't buy back yesterday.
And baby you know my hands are dirty (and baby you know my hands are dirty)
but I wanted to be your valentine
I'll be the water when you get thirsty baby
when you get drunk I'll be the wine. (Jon's scream)

CHORUS

And I wasn't there when you where happy
and I wasn't there when you were down, down down
I didn't mean to miss your birthday baby
I wish I'd seen you blow those candles out.

CHORUS

Never Say Goodbye Lyrics

Artist(Band) : Bon Jovi


As I sit in this smokey room
The night about to end
I pass my time with strangers
But this bottle's my only friend

Remember when we used to park
On Butler Street out in the dark
Remember when we lost the keys
And you lost more than that in my backseat

Remember when we used to talk
About busting out - we'd break their hearts
Together - forever

Never say goodbye, never say goodbye
You and me and my old friends
Hoping it would never end
Never say goodbye, never say goodbye
Holdin' on - we got to try
Holdin' on to never say goodbye

Remember days of skipping school
Racing cars and being cool
With a six pack and the radio
We didn't need no place to go

Remember at the prom that night
You and me we had a fight
But the band they played our favorite song
And I held you in my arms so strong

We danced so close
We danced so slow
And I swore I'd never let you go
Together - forever

Never say goodbye, never say goodbye
You and me and my old friends
Hoping it would never end
Never say goodbye, never say goodbye
Holdin' on - we got to try
Holdin' on to never say goodbye

I guess you'd say we used to talk
About busting out
We'd break their hearts
Together - forever
Hey man I'm alive I'm takin' each day and night at a time

Santa Fe Lyrics

Artist(Band) : Jon Bon Jovi



They say that no man is an island

And good things come to those who wait

But the things I hear are there

Just to remind me

Every dog will have his day

The spirits they intoxicate me

I watched them infiltrate my soul

They try to say it's too late for me

Tell my guns I'm coming home



I swear I'm gonna live forever

Tell my maker he can wait

I'm riding somewhere south of heaven

Heading back to Santa Fe

It's judgment day in Santa Fe



Once I was promised absolution

There's only one solution for my sins

You gotta face your ghosts and know

With no illusions

That only one of you is going home again



And I blame this world for making

A good man evil

It's this world that can drive a

Good man mad

And it's this world that turns a killer

Into a hero

Well I blame this world for making

A good man bad



Now I ain't getting into heaven

If the devil has his way

I swear I'm gonna live forever

Heading back to Santa Fe

Got debts to pay in Santa Fe

It's judgment day in Santa Fe



So I save a prayer

For when I need it most

To the Father, Son

And the Holy Ghost

And sign it from a sinner

With no name



When I meet my maker

When I close the book

On the hearts I broke

And the lives I took

Will he walk away

'Cause my soul's

Too late to save



Now I ain't getting into heaven

If the devil has his way

I swear I'm gonna live forever

Heading back to Santa Fe

Got debts to pay in Santa Fe

It's judgment day in Santa Fe

It's my life Lyrics

Artist (Band) : bon jovi

THIS AIN'T A SONG FOR THE BROKEN-HEARTED
NO SILENT PRAYER FOR THE FAITH-DEPARTED
I AIN'T GONNA BE JUST A FACE IN THE CROWD
YOU'RE GONNA HEAR MY VOICE
WHEN I SHOUT IT OUT LOUD

IT'S MY LIFE
IT'S NOW OR NEVER
I AIN'T GONNA LIVE FOREVER
I JUST WANT TO LIVE WHILE I'M ALIVE
(IT'S MY LIFE)
MY HEART IS LIKE AN OPEN HIGHWAY
LIKE FRANKIE SAID
I DID IT MY WAY
I JUST WANNA LIVE WHILE I'M ALIVE
IT'S MY LIFE

THIS IS FOR THE ONES WHO STOOD THEIR GROUND
FOR TOMMY AND GINA WHO NEVER BACKED DOWN
TOMORROW'S GETTING HARDER MAKE NO MISTAKE
LUCK AIN'T EVEN LUCKY
GOT TO MAKE YOUR OWN BREAKS

IT'S MY LIFE
AND IT'S NOW OR NEVER
I AIN'T GONNA LIVE FOREVER
I JUST WANT TO LIVE WHILE I'M ALIVE
(IT'S MY LIFE)
MY HEART IS LIKE AN OPEN HIGHWAY
LIKE FRANKIE SAID
I DID IT MY WAY
I JUST WANT TO LIVE WHILE I'M ALIVE
'CAUSE IT'S MY LIFE

BETTER STAND TALL WHEN THEY'RE CALLING YOU OUT
DON'T BEND, DON'T BREAK, BABY, DON'T BACK DOWN

IT'S MY LIFE
AND IT'S NOW OR NEVER
'CAUSE I AIN'T GONNA LIVE FOREVER
I JUST WANT TO LIVE WHILE I'M ALIVE
(IT'S MY LIFE)
MY HEART IS LIKE AN OPEN HIGHWAY
LIKE FRANKIE SAID
I DID IT MY WAY
I JUST WANT TO LIVE WHILE I'M ALIVE

Blood Money Lyrics

Artist (Band) : Jon Bon Jovi



Hey Patty Garrett that's what I used to call you

They tell me you want me but I hear they've got you

They made you a lawman with a badge made of silver

They paid you some money to sell them my soul

But you say this ain't about me, this ain't about you

Or the good and the bad times we've both been through

When the lines between brothers and justice have changed

You do what you've got to cause you can't walk away



I wonder what would have happened

If you were the killer

And I was the hero

Would things be the same

Or would I have traded

Your life for my own life

Would I have paid

Your debts in your place



But this ain't about me, this ain't about you

Or the good and the bad times we've both been through

When the lines between brothers and justice have changed

You do what you've got to cause you can't walk away

Blaze Of Glory Lyrics

Artist (Band) : Jon Bon Jovi


I wake up in the morning
And I raise my weary head
I've got an old coat for a pillow
And the earth was last night's bed
I don't know where I'm going
Only God knows where I've been
I'm a devil on the run
A six gun lover
A candle in the wind

When you're brought into this world
They say you're born in sin
Well at least they gave me something
I didn't have to steal or have to win
Well they tell me that I'm wanted
Yeah, I'm a wanted man
I'm a colt in your stable
I'm what Cain was to Abel
Mister catch me if you can

I'm going out in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I'm going out in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
I'm no one's son
Call me young gun

You ask about my conscience
And I offer you my soul

Always Lyrics

Artist (Band) : Bon Jovi

This romeo is bleeding
But you can't see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up

It's been raining since you left me
Now I'm drowning in the flood
You see I've always been a fighter
But without you I give up

Now I can't sing a love song
Like the way it's meant to be
Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore
But baby, that's just me

And I will love you, baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always

Now your pictures that you left behind
Are just memories of a different life
Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye
What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair
To touch your lips, to hold you near
When you say your prayers try to understand
I've made mistakes, I'm just a man

Dyin' Ain't Much Of A Livin' Lyrics

Artist (Band) : Jon Bon Jovi



A whiskey bottle comforts me

And tells me not to cry

While a full moon says a prayer for me

I try to close my eyes

But the night's there to remind me

Of the guns and the early graves

The ghosts appear as I fall asleep

To sing an outlaw's serenade



Dyin' ain't much of a livin'

When you're livin' on the run

Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young

Is it too late to ask for forgiveness

For the things that I have done

Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young



The desert's been a friend to me

It covers me by night

And a snakebite's not my enemy

But it taught me how to fight



All this fame don't bring you freedom

Though it wears a thin disguise

When an outlaw is just a man to me

And a man has to die



Dyin' ain't much of a livin'

When you're livin' on the run

Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young

Is it too late to ask for forgiveness

For the things that I have done

Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young



And I hope someone will pray for me

When it's my turn to die... PRAY FOR ME !!!



Dyin' ain't much of a livin'

When you're livin' on the run

Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young

Is it too late to ask for forgiveness

For the things that I have done

Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young

(You know you want to) Make a Memory Lyrics

Artist (Band) : Bon Jovi


Hello again...It's you and me
Kinda always like it used to be
Sippin wine .... killin time
Tryin to solve life's mysteries...
How's your life? It's been a while
God, it's good to see you smile
I see you reachin for your keys
Lookin for a reason not to leave

If you don't know if you should stay
If you don't say what's on your mind
Baby just breathe...
There's nowhere else tonight we should be...
You wanna make a memory....

I dug up this old photograph
Look at all the hair we had
It's bitter sweet to hear you laugh
Your phone was ringing. I don't wanna ask

If you go now, I'll understand
If you stay, hey, I got a plan
You wanna make a memory?
You wanna steal a piece of time?
You can sing the melody to me
And I can write a couple lines
You wanna make a memory?

Bed Of Roses Lyrics

Artist (Band) : Bon Jovi


Sitting here wasted and wounded
at this old piano
Trying hard to capture
the moment this morning I don't know
'Cause a bottle of vodka
is still lodged in my head
And some blond gave me nightmares
I think she's still in my bed
As I dream about movies
they won't make of me when I'm dead

With an ironclad fist I wake up and
French kiss the morning
While some marching band keeps
its own beat in my head
While we're talking
About all of the things that I long to believe
About love and the truth and
what you mean to me
And the truth is baby you're all that I need

I want to lay you on a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses

Well I'm so far away
That each step that I take is on my way home
A king's ransom in dimes I'd given each night
Just to see through this payphone
Still I run out of time
Or it's hard to get through
Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you
I'll just close my eyes and whisper,
baby blind love is true

I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses

The hotel bar hangover whiskey's gone dry
The barkeeper's wig's crooked
And she's giving me the eye
I might have said yeah
But I laughed so hard I think I died

When 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

I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses
