Live or Die

She brushes the hair from across her face
Denies the pain that has left its trace
On a chorus girl in a street ballet
The dance is sweet but she never sees the light of day

And it's killing me
But I just won't give up on her now
I never had a dream so real
Told me more about the way I feel

Hold me 'cause I'm going down
To meet my angel on the edge of town
If I live or die (live or die)
If I live or die

The road is long and it's hard enough
It don't make a difference when you're out of love
If you live or die (live or die)
If you live or die

She kneels in church tryin' to find the light
By the midnight oil burnin' every night
And if the world is cold, it's the same old line
Wasting the years like a criminal without a crime

And it's killing me
But I just won't give up on her now
I never knew it hurts so bad
Missin' a girl that I've never had

(Hold me 'cause I'm going down)
Hold me now
To meet my angel on the edge of town
If I live or die (live or die)
If I live or die

(The road is long and it's hard enough)
The road is long
It don't make a difference when you're out of love
If you live or die (live or die)
If you live or die

Now I don't need you watchin' over me
I've looked up from the bottom of a broken heart
And my tears have set me free
But tonight's a night I don't wanna cry alone, yeah

(Hold me 'cause I'm going down)
I'm going down
(To meet my angel on) the edge of town
If I live or die (live or die)
If I live or die

(The road is long and it's hard enough)
The road is long
It don't make a difference when you're out of love
If you live or die (live or die)
If you live or die
If you live or die

If I live or die
