“Tattoos” is the title track from Jason Derulo’s third international album. It’s an ode to love that is lost and found again, and includes some very clever wordplay with love and tattoos.
[Verse 1]
Who's more desperate?
You're on your knees boo
But when you fuck up
I don't leave you, uh, I can't leave you, yeah
Guess you're permanent
Can't be removed
Each time my heart breaks
It's like a new tattoo, don't need a new tattoo, woah
[Pre-Chorus]
One touch always makes me
Too hard to escape
Three strikes, I'm still yours
What am I waiting for?
[Chorus]
I'm running out of room
Or your tattoos
How can I get over you, over you
When you're all over me?
So don't tell me it's cool
That I'm tattooed
How can I get over you, over you
When you're all over me?
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
Why do we stay
When only fools would?
I guess we're both fools
'Cause the sex is good, it's way too good, yeah
Call us crazy, misunderstood
'Cause I can't leave you
And I know I should
People say I should, uh
[Pre-Chorus]
But one touch always makes me
Too hard to escape
Three strikes, I'm still yours
What am I waiting for?
[Chorus]
I'm running out of room
Or your tattoos
How can I get over you, over you
When you're all over me?
So don't tell me it's cool (Cool)
That I'm tattooed (Tattooed)
How can I get over you, over you
When you're all over me?
Yeah, yeah
[Bridge]
Permanently trying to hide, the scars we can't remove
You're drawn on me and I'm still drawn to you
[Chorus]
I'm running out of room (Running)
For your tattoos
How can I get over you, over you (How can I get over you, over you?)
When you're all over me?
So don't tell me it's cool (So don't you tell me, cool)
That I'm tattooed (Tattooed)
How can I get over you, over you
When you're all over me?
Yeah, yeah
