It could be a rose of red
Encircled by your name
Or I could have a scrolling ring
And you would have the same
Or it could be a single note
Suspended in the Sea
If this is what I have to do
To bring you back to me
Let me write it in a fresh tattoo
That's burning in my skin
I'd add a little every day
Until I have you back again
Maybe all the tears I've cried
Since you refused to stay
They'd cover my from head to toe
But I'd do it anyway
And then I'd add a burning heart
If that would make it right
If this is what I have to do
To take back that one night
The sting and burn and pain
That I can not take back from you
I carry with me every day
Preserved in that tattoo
It could start with a rose of red
Encircled by your name
That would be a ring of fire
That nobody could tame
And then I'd have a single note
Suspended in the Sea
If this is what I have to do
To bring you back to me
Gonna write it in a fresh tattoo
That's burning in my skin
And add a little every day
Until I have you back again
