The Bacon Brothers - Take Off This Tattoo Lyrics

I got a broken heart on my sleeve
And late at night it tortures me
Here comes that feeling closing in
Like an itch, like a burn, underneath my skin

Yeah, I'll admit I made some bad choices
I tried to forget it, tried to cut my losses
But the ink is there to taunt me, the memory still haunts me
It's written in my arm in black and blue
So I gotta head downtown
Take off this tattoo
I'll take off this tattoo

We walked into that place together
To put a promise in a needle that would last forever
And I remember thinking this might hurt
But that needle ain't got nothin' on loving her

Yeah, I'll admit I made some bad choices
I tried to forget it, tried to cut my losses
But the ink is there to taunt me
The memory still haunts me
It's written in my arm in black and blue
So, I gotta head downtown
Take off this tattoo
I'll take off this tattoo

Yeah, I'll admit I made some bad, bad choices
Tried to forget it, tried to cut my losses
But right now I can't wait for time to let it fade
'Cause it's written in my arm in black and blue
Yeah, there's only one thing left for me to do
Yeah, I head downtown
Take off this tattoo
I'll take off this tattoo
I'll take off this tattoo
Take off this tattoo
