lyrics

Her lips were code red, like the state of the nation.
Her eyes hide Saint John's revelations.
It was summer, and the sun was up.
It was burning our backs again,
when i wandered like a stray dog,
down every street and back up again.

Oh! she could tame...
She could tame a lion
But she couldn't tame ...
She couldn't tame the animal in me.

She willed her way, I lay and prayed for assistance.
She could sum me up with a stare from any distance.
We were younger, and the days were long
and the nights were never long enough.
We would chase the terminator 'round the planet
without thought / blind / off the cuff.

Oh! she could tame...
She could tame a lion
But she couldn't tame ...
She couldn't tame the animal in me.
