Tattoo

[Verse 1]
I've never been tattooed, no reason to put one on
Like a favorite song, I tend to wimp out and never go through
And everyday I see all the pretty girls around me
And all their tattoos and many questions they receive

[Chorus]
But I wish I was a tattoo
So I'd know I meant something to you
I'd know I meant something to you

[Verse 2]
I wanna be the words written down your side
I wanna be the secret you have to hide
I'd settle for the one you'd rather erase
But I'd rather be the flowers wrapped around your waist
I want to be the arrow, the heart, the name
I'd even be the cover-up to hide your shame

[Chorus]
I wish I was a tattoo
So I'd know I meant something to you
Know I meant something to you

[Verse 3]
I wish it could be so black and white
A moment in time you remember for life
I wanna start conversations that wouldn’t otherwise
Encourage you to roll up your sleeves all night
I wanna be the reason fingers meet
I wanna catch tears rolling down your cheek

[Chorus]
I wish I was a tattoo
So I'd know I meant something to you
Know I meant something to you
Know I meant something to you
Know I meant something to you

[Outro]
It may be silly, but it’s one way to your heart
We had a good run, but it’s time for us to part
It’s times like these, that send me to my knees

[Chorus]
I wish I was a tattoo
So I'd know I meant something to you
Know I meant something to you
So I'd know I meant something to you
Know I meant something to you
