She was the fire and I was the engine

One of a thousand built to last

She was the fire dancing with hunger

She knew I would follow 'til I ran out of gas



Lost in the summer of burning desire

She lit the night for miles away

Out of control, yeah she was the fire

And off in the distance she called my name



Engine 999, I'll met you on the roads we used to ride

Engine 999, a thousand dreams we left behind



She was the fire and I was her prisoner

One of a thousand tied to her flame

She was the fire dancing with hunger

And the way she danced was never the same



I was a fool to try and contain her

One of a thousand consumed in her path

Running like wild yeah she was the fire

I was the engine she was calling back



Engine 999, I'll met you on the roads we used to ride

Engine 999, a thousand dreams we left behind



She was the fire and I was the engine

She was the one I couldn't tame

Out of control, yeah she was the fire

And still I can hear her call my name



Engine 999, I'll met you on the roads we used to ride

Engine 999, a thousand dreams we left behind
