Faded Tattoo Lyrics

Late, Late at night

Oh, Lord what a sight

Skinny-dipping away

By the light of the moon

They all have their place

Not one, a mistake

Roses, crosses and skulls

A knife through the heart

Hey, Hey, Hey

You're like my Faded Tattoo

Old, crooked lines

Too blurry to see

Hey, Hey, Hey

Just like my Faded Tattoo

Not quite the same

Like you used to be

You're still a part of me

It's nobody's fault

Just how we were taught

One and one, plus one

Can never be two

The tables have turned

Still nobody's learned

I've had my cake

And you ate it too

Hey, Hey, Hey

You're like my Faded Tattoo

Old, crooked lines

Too blurry to see

Hey, Hey, Hey

Just like my Faded Tattoo

Not quite the same

Like you used to be

You're still a part of me

The Love and the Hate

All give and no take

The story was clear

Right from the start

So how does it feel

I tell you it's real

The pleasure from pain

In every detail

Hey, Hey, Hey

You're like my Faded Tattoo

Old, crooked lines

Too blurry to see

Hey, Hey, Hey

Just like my Faded Tattoo

Not quite the same

Like you used to be

Hey, Hey, Hey

Hey, Hey, Hey

Hey, Hey, Hey

You're still a part of me
