Tattoo Lyrics

Oooh ooh oooh No matter what you say about love I keep coming back for more Keep my hand in the fire Sooner or later I get what I'm asking for No matter what you say about life I learn every time I bleed The 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 I can't waste time so give it a moment I realized nothings 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'll always have you) 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've gotta be strong and leave you behind I can't waste time so give it a moment I realize nothings 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'll always have you) 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, oh I can't waste time so give it a moment I realize nothings broken (yeah) 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 (don't look back) I loved you once needed protection (no, no) You're still a part of everything I do You're on my heart just like a tattoo I can't waste time so give it a moment (I can't waste time) I realized nothings broken No need to worry about everything I've done (no need to worry) Live every second like it was my last one Don't look back got a new direction (don't you ever look back) I loved you once needed protection You're still a part of everything I do You're on my heart just like a tattoo I Just like a tattoo I'll always have you

Meaning of Tattoo

“Tattoo” by Jordin Sparks is a poignant reflection on letting go of a past love and embracing a new beginning. The lyrics express a cycle of returning to a painful connection, acknowledging the lessons learned through heartbreak – symbolized powerfully as an indelible “tattoo” etched onto her heart. Despite the lingering memories and initial need for protection within that relationship, she recognizes the importance of moving forward, accepting her mistakes, and living fully in the present moment with no regrets. It’s about recognizing the bittersweet nature of love's impact, admitting vulnerability, and ultimately choosing self-preservation and a fearless pursuit of happiness. The repetition emphasizes this permanent mark – not one of sorrow, but a reminder of growth and the unwavering spirit to redefine herself and her future, symbolized by the enduring “tattoo.”
