TATTOO
KIDZ BOP Kids Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No matter what you say about love, about love
I keep coming back for more, for more
Keep my hand in the fire, sooner or later
I'll get what I'm asking for

No matter what you say about life, about life
I learn every time I bleed, I bleed
That 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, 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 realize nothing's broken
No need to worry about everything I've done
Live every second like it was my last one

Don't look back at 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

I'm sick of playing all of these games, these games
It's not about taking sides, taking sides
When I looked in the mirror, it didn't deliver
It hurt enough to think that I could stop

Admit that I'm wrong
And then change my mind, change my mind
Sorry, but I gotta be strong
And leave you behind

I can't waste time so give it a moment
I realize nothing's broken
No need to worry about everything I've done
Live every second like it was my last one

Don't look back at 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 and you

I will never regret you
Still the memory of you
Marks everything I do

I can't waste time so give it a moment
I realize nothing's broken
No need to worry about everything I've done
Live every second like it was my last one

Don't look back at 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

Can't waste time so give it a moment
I realize nothing's broken
No need to worry about everything I've done
Live every second like it was my last one

Don't look back at 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

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Tattoo" by KIDZ BOP Kids express the idea of not being able to completely let go of someone who has left a deep impression on your life. The metaphor of a tattoo is used to convey the idea that even though the person is no longer present, they are permanently ingrained in the singer's life. The opening lines suggest that despite any bad experiences or criticism the singer receives in regards to love, they still find themselves drawn back to it.


The chorus repeats the metaphor and emphasizes the permanence of the person's impact, stating that just like a tattoo, the singer will always have that person with them. However, the bridge offers some hope for moving on from the past by admitting to being wrong, changing their mind, and leaving the past behind. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, suggesting the cycle of wanting to move on yet finding comfort in the past may continue for some time.


Overall, "Tattoo" is a song about the power of memories and the difficulty of letting go, even when it seems like the best option. The lyrics acknowledge the pain and turmoil of moving on but also offer a sense of optimism and hope for the future.
