In the midst of a dream I swear I saw you standing there
In a sea of emotion with faithful devotion you were there
In heat of the night under the street lights once again
At the edge of the fire for the love of the jungle again and again, oh yeah

They can't tame the lion
Can't tame the lion
They can't tame the lion

One night in detroit, yes I swear I saw you standing there
In a summer of dreams down by the river you were there
I remember it's all so clear
In the midst of a dream, yes I swear I say you standing there

They can't tame the lion
Can't tame the lion
They can't tame the lion

In the midst of a dream I swear I saw you standing there
In a sea of emotion with faithful devotion you were there
I remember it's all so clear
In the embers of reckless years

In the midst of a dream I swear I saw you standing there
They can't tame the lion
Can't tame the lion
They can't tame the lion
At the edge of the fire, for the love of the jungle
They can't tame the lion
Can't tame the lion
They can't tame the lion
