Don't get ahead of yourself There's plenty of time left to lose Plenty of days left to ink me in Before summers gone and you're gone too So let my hands tattoo my touch onto the canvass of your skin For I fear if I f*ck up I won't have this chance again Because what seems at 22 is guaranteed as meant to be May be far less permanent at 23 So baby don't change you mind Don't change your mind on me 'Cause I'll never be as deep as the colors in your skin But I sure will know the sting Yes I sure will know the sting 'Cause nothing stays around forever Nothing I can find Nothing stays around forever Not even me, oh So why don't you let me in Into the darkness that hides beneath your skin Where I'll hide away in secret and bide my time Before I need to say goodbye I don't wanna say goodbye
