Saxon Princess Of The Night Lyrics

She used to be an iron horse, twenty years ago
Used to bring the mail to me through the ice and snow
I sat alone and watched her steaming through the night
Ninety tons of thunder lighting up the sky

She was the princess of the night
We saw the writing on the wall
She was the princess of the night
I'd take a ride across the sky

Speeding sparks like lightning, engine working hard
Furnace and the footplate shining in the night
Iron striking metal the sound of racing steel
That's all I ever wanna hear, it's music to my ears

She was the princess of the night
We saw the writing on the wall
She was the princess of the night
I'd take a ride across the sky

[SOLO]

She was the princess of the night
We saw the writing on the wall
She was the princess of the night
I'd take a ride across the sky

Ninety tons of thunder lighting up the sky
Steaming red hot pistons, see the wheels flash by
Hear the whistle blowing, streaking down the track
If I ever had my way I'd bring the princess back one day

She was the princess of the night
We saw the writing on the wall
She was the princess of the night
I'd take a ride across the sky

SKY ! SKY ! SKY !!!!!

[SOLO]
