[Intro] Yeah, come on One more ride through the heat of the night Kick it in [Verse 1] I caught your note on the kitchen door Said you were tired of this kind of war Coffee cold in a chipped white cup I stood there long enough to let it soak in The radio played some song from back when And I laughed a little, then I felt it again [Pre-Chorus] We said things we could not take back Then we watched the whole room turn black But I am still here, I am still strong And I am not done, no, I am not gone [Chorus] So keep the engine on Keep the engine on We can lose the road, but we do not lose the song Keep the engine on Keep the engine on If the whole world shakes, we keep rolling along [Verse 2] I took your ring off and set it down Beside the keys and the worn-out sound Of a screen door banging in the wind I thought about the way we used to laugh How every fight would always pass Then we would kiss and start again [Pre-Chorus] Now the cracks run deep in the paint And I am not saying we were saints But there is a fire under this old bone And I can still make a run on my own [Chorus] So keep the engine on Keep the engine on We can lose the road, but we do not lose the song Keep the engine on Keep the engine on If the whole world shakes, we keep rolling along [Bridge] Maybe love is not a house that stays Maybe it is a light you carry through the days Maybe we were never built to last Maybe we were just too proud to ask For help, for grace, for one more chance For a little truth in a broken dance But I hear the engine breathe tonight And I know I am still alive I know I am still alive [Final Chorus] So keep the engine on Keep the engine on We can lose the road, but we do not lose the song Keep the engine on Keep the engine on If the whole world shakes, we keep rolling along Keep the engine on Keep the engine on I am not looking back, I am learning how to be strong Keep the engine on Keep the engine on Yeah, I am still here, and I am moving on [Outro] One more ride through the heat of the night Keep it running Keep it running Yeah, keep the engine on
