Well I'm stuck on you like that heart shaped tattoo
That your mum always said you never thought through
But we all make mistakes when we're twenty two
And you know how she hates everything that we do
You still do it to spite her but honey I can't choose
I'm just stuck on you like that heart shaped tattoo
And you flash through my mind like these old plywood signs
That litter the edge of the freeway I ride
I thought of so many jokes that I'm just dying to tell
Why can't you be lying in that next cheap hotel
To recount all our stories and trade every crime
As it's flashed through my mind
Like these old plywood signs
There's stars in the movies
There's stars in the skies
There's stars on the boulevard
And there's stars in her eyes
But it's the scars that get me
When she lays at my side
And says I know you don't love me
But neither do I
So I'm colored in blue like that heart shaped tattoo
That gets covered in denim when the winter blows through
And I can't kick a demon that looks like she does
No I can't dodge a bullet that feels like her love
Pushed a hundred doors open but I just can't walk through
I'm stuck on you like that heart shaped tattoo
There's stars in the movies
There's stars in the skies
There's stars on the boulevard
And there's stars in her eyes
But it's the scars that get me
When she lays at my side
And says I know you don't love me
But neither do I
Now every new place just marks how far I travelled from you
And every new face just reminds me what yours can do
But darling after all we've been through
I can't just put this call down and start a new
Girl I'm stuck on you like that heart shaped tattoo
That your mum always said that you never thought through
There's stars in the movies
There's stars in the skies
There's stars on the boulevard
And there's stars in her eyes
But it's so hard to reach them no matter what we do
And I just hope some day you see they shine inside you
If you're wondering what I'm up to babe
There ain't nothing new
I'm still stuck on you like that heart shaped tattoo
