�Tattoo�

by Jordin Sparks

No matter what you say about love
I keep coming back for more
Keep my hand in the fire
Sooner or later
I�ll get what I�m asking for

No matter what you say about life
I learn every time I bleed
That truth is a stranger
Soul is in danger
I gotta let my spirit be free

To admit that I�m wrong
And then change my mind
Sorry, but I have to move on
And leave you behind

Chorus
I can�t waste time so give it a moment
I realise nothing�s broken
No need to worry
About everything I�ve done
Live every second
Like it was my last one
Don�t look back
Got a new direction
I loved you once
Needed protection
You�re still a part of everything I do
You�re on my heart just like a tattoo

Just like a tattoo
I�ll always have you

I�m sick of playing all of these games
It�s not about taking sides
When I looked in the mirror, didn�t deliver
It hurt enough to think that I could stop

Admit that I�m wrong
And then change my mind
Sorry but I gotta be strong
And leave you behind

(Chorus)

If I live every moment
Won�t change any moment
Still a part of me in you
I will never regret you
Still the memory of you
Marks everything I do

(Chorus x2)
