Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, oh, oh No matter what you say about love, I keep coming back for more, Keep my head 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 realize nothing's broken No need to worry bout everything I 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 I'll always have you I'm sick of playing all of these games Its not bout 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 Sorry but I got to 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 bout everything I done Live every second like it was my last one Don't look back got a new direction I love 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'll always have you If I live every moment, Won't change any moment, There's still a part of me in u 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 nothing's broken no need to worry bout everything I 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 in my heart just like a tattoo I can't waste time so give it a moment I realize nothing's broken no need to worry bout everything I 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 in my heart just like a tattoo Just like a tattoo I'll Always have you
