Tatto Lyrics
Joseph Arthur
I miss the days when you were in my world
It seems like it was a lifetime ago
We said our goodbye with tears
And promised to not let the years get away
But that's something you just have to say
In my pain
Is where I've tattooed your name
Was it a dream
Was it a dream
Going round and round and round and round your heart
Jeremy said he saw you out on second Ave
And you looked like you could use some sleep
You told him you sobered up
But now you are giving that up
'Cause sometimes
Love isn't stronger than wine
In my pain
Is where i've tattooed your name
Was it a dream
Was it a dream
Going round and round and round and round my heart
I wonder
What you must think about me
What I heard
Is you consider me dead
I guess that's fair of you
I never was good to you
I'm ashamed
For making you feel all my pain
When i sleep
Sometimes i still think we speak
Is it a dream
Is it a dream
Going round and round and round and round my heart
