| [01:06.022] | Shaped for speed strong on the wing |
| [01:08.929] | (The sketches and designs were made) |
| [01:12.739] | Frames were laid by hand-picked men |
| [01:19.627] | Working every hour they had |
| [01:22.801] | (To build the fire, to make the engine) |
| [01:26.562] | Blows are struck to forge the steel |
| [01:30.737] | (So she can fly) |
| [01:34.130] | The road is clear and words remain unsaid |
| [01:44.249] | He walks the high wire |
| [01:56.630] | With the engines and men of the line |
| [02:01.991] | (He sees love, he sees hope) |
| [02:05.206] | (He sees everything that they are) |
| [02:08.836] | The need to fly far |
| [02:15.465] | (He sees love) |
| [02:18.194] | Love |
| [02:30.541] | Men as giants, hammers falling |
| [02:36.696] | Works' own heartbeat |
| [02:42.940] | Furnace stacks with black smoke rising |
| [02:49.144] | Steal the clean air |
| [03:11.871] | Here she comes |
| [03:23.051] | Joe and Tommy on the plate |
| [03:26.070] | (Their caps are worn in racing style) |
| [03:29.936] | Elbows jutting from the cab |
| [03:36.771] | Working every hour they had |
| [03:39.865] | (To build the fire, to drive the engine) |
| [03:43.651] | Looking to the road ahead |
| [03:51.084] | There was a lonely voice |
| [03:56.312] | And it spoke these words: |
| [04:01.623] | "Run hard as you like" |
| [04:13.817] | For the engines and men of the line |
| [04:19.105] | (He sees love, he sees hope) |
| [04:22.512] | (He sees everything that they are) |
| [04:26.182] | The need to fly far |
| [04:32.749] | (He sees love) |
| [04:47.713] | Men as giants feed the engine |
| [04:53.780] | Build the fire from cold |
| [05:00.203] | Coal and water, fire and steam |
| [05:05.345] | To drive the pistons home |
| [05:15.599] | He sees love |
| [06:28.375] | They ran south |
| [06:34.607] | Working up the bank |
| [06:44.016] | Past the upturned faces of |
| [06:53.387] | The platelayers |
| [06:59.430] | She starts to take her wing |
| [07:05.248] | She jumps to it like a living thing |
| [07:11.143] | (like a living thing) |
| [07:15.037] | Made for speed and in full cry |
| [07:20.622] | They gave her the road |
| [07:24.323] | And she holds to the line |
| [07:45.866] | Church bells call |
| [07:51.674] | A beat along the track |
| [08:01.535] | She burns with |
| [08:06.965] | The substance of the land |
| [08:18.427] | Racing through the circling lines |
| [08:24.425] | A rocket in blue |
| [08:28.512] | Two miles a minute |
| [08:34.300] | Embers stream along her sides |
| [08:40.026] | From this far away now |
| [08:43.904] | She flies with them |
| [08:46.060] | Into sky |
| [11:12.898] | Into history |
| [11:16.866] | Into legend |
| [11:24.702] | She flies…… |
| [01:06.022] | Shaped for speed strong on the wing |
| [01:08.929] | The sketches and designs were made |
