Tattoos Lyrics

I said I'd never get tattoos

Unless they mean a lot

And my parents couldn't know

You said I'd have to think it through

'Cause you know the perfect spot

And it'd mean a lot to you

I've never understood

How people mark their bodies up

With the name of someone else

But now I do

You said you'd never let it go

Unless I learned to sing

And took you to a show

So now I've got a microphone

And my tattoo is showing

So I guess my parents know

I've never understood

How people cope with knowing

That they've let their parents down

'Cause they love someone else

But now I do

I'm always scared

That I'll let you down

Yeah, I'm always scared

That I'll let you down

And I never thought too much about eternity

Until I saw your face

And I think I've wasted every ounce of energy

Tryna find a perfect place

'Til I saw your face

And we got tattoos

Now I know it's you

Yeah, I know it's you
