I've never been tattooed, with no reason to put one on Like a favorite song, I tend to empower and I never go through And everyday I see all the pretty girls around me And all their tattoos and many questions they receive But I wish I was a tattoo, so I know I meant something to you I know I meant something to you I wanna be the words written down your side I wanna be the secret you have to hide But settle for the one you'd rather erase Better rather be the flowers wrapped around your waist I wanna be the arrow, the heart, the name Might even be the cover up to hide your shame I wish I was a tattoo, so I know I meant something to you I know I meant something to you 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 running down your cheek I wish I was a tattoo, so I know I meant something to you I know I meant something to you I know I meant something to you I know I meant something to you 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 I wish I was a tattoo, so I know I meant something to you I know I meant something to you So I know I meant something to you I know I meant something to you
