Lyrics
[Verse 1]
And I don't know why, but
When I close my eyes shut
I picture you
Tattoo in my mind
[Verse 2]
And it's cold outside, but
That cold don't find us
When I picture you
Tattoo in my mind
[Verse 3]
Oh, baby, I've been meaning to thank you
Thank you for leaving the light on
Thank you for waiting for me
While I've been gone
[Verse 4]
And, baby, I ain't tryna steal your shine
I feel like a thief in the night
I know I did wrong every time
I picture you, tattoo my mind
[Verse 5]
You make me wanna do me better
You make me wanna do you, too
Never say never, we can be the new team player
We would be a new theme to a routine we do
We suit, we two peas in a pod
I'm just saying that I can't see a fault
Just a bittersweet heart and soul
Go together like we've known forever
'Cause we are the separate two halves of a whole, darlin'
[Verse 6]
And I don't know why, but
When I close my eyes shut
I picture you
Tattoo in my mind
[Verse 7]
And it's cold outside, but
That cold don't find us
When I picture you
Tattoo in my mind
[Verse 8]
We're just tryna make it right
We had to work it out
It's perfect now, we made it tight
Like we don't worry 'bout a thing
We know how we feel
So, we touching something real
Every time we say goodnight
And every time we say goodbye
[Verse 9]
When I wake, it's you who's in my head
I blame it on the way you smile
Hopelessly devoted, waiting for that moment
That she don't notice, so I focus now
I'ma take a picture, frame it like a photograph
[Verse 10]
As I sit on top of my hill
Offer my will, sharing my heart
I made it for you
(Suit me so well, we suit we so well)
[Verse 11]
As we sit and stare at the stars
Take in the view, a table for two
I saved it for you
(Suit me so well, we suit we so well)
[Verse 12]
And I don't know why, but
When I close my eyes shut
I picture you
Tattoo in my mind
[Verse 13]
And it's cold outside, but
That cold don't find us
When I picture you
Tattoo in my mind
[Verse 14]
When I soar, I just wanna hold your hand
Pull your body over mine
I picture you
Tattoo in my mind
[Verse 15]
It's okay, you were over sayin'
A lonely song and a photograph
I picture you
Tattoo in my mind
[Verse 16]
But, baby, I've been meaning to thank you
Thank you for leaving the light on
Thank you for waiting for me
While I've been gone
[Verse 17]
And, baby, I ain't tryna steal your shine
I feel like a thief in the night
I know I did wrong every time
I picture you, tattoo my mind
