MATCHING TATTOOS Lyrics by Jet Stream

2024

[Verse 1]:
We went to our friend Harry’s house, although it was rather dull
He wanted to show us a new movie he was working on
He claimed to be a superhero, we laughed and so did he
Then he pulled up his shirt to show us a new marking that he got
Said it was for his girl, and hers the same, a piece of both combined
I loved the thought and turned to you but you already resigned

[Pre-Chorus]:
You Say they're gonna think we're vagrants, mind is flashing "vacant"
We’re too smart to make this mistake and
That it's too dramatic, pain could be traumatic
But I just wanna get closer, closer

[Chorus]:
I said I wanted to get matching tattoos
A little something on the wrist connecting me to you
But you threw it in my face, said I was talking out of place
Said you don’t want something permanent, but what happened to permanence?

[Verse 2]:
We went back home to our apartment, our shoes dropped near the door
When we dream it always seems a little bigger there
So we talked about our future; I was frightened, so was she
So we laughed it off and watched a show but thoughts lingered in the air
I brought it up again, a little test of faith, of devotion to each other
She saw it as a huge mistake you can't erase from which you never could recover

[Pre-Chorus]:
You say they're gonna think we're vagrants, mind is flashing "vacant"
We’re too smart to make this mistake and
That it's too dramatic, pain could be traumatic
But I just wanna get closer, closer

[Chorus]:
I said I wanted to get matching tattoos
A little something on the wrist connecting me to you
But you threw it in my face, said I was talking out of place
Said you don’t want something permanent, but what happened to permanence?

[Bridge]:
She walked up one day like I'd never seen before
I knew it was something serious; she wanted something more…when she said

[Sparse Chorus]:
"I think I want to go and say our 'I do’s'
And get something on our hands connecting me to you…"
Well I threw it in your face
Said you were talking out of place
You don't want nothing permanent!
What happened to permanence? When I said…

[Chorus]:
I said I wanted to get matching tattoos
A little something on the wrist connecting me to you
But you threw it in my face
Said I was talking out of place
Said you don’t want something permanent, but what happened to permanence?
