There's a save the day on the refrigerator from last may
Next to the photo both faces we made on my cousin's wedding day
I made her apart of everything
And maybe that's on me
'Cuz we were a tattoo I wanted everyone to see
We were handprints with the date stuck in concrete
We were initials in a heart carved on a tree
We were love notes passed in class, written out in ink
But now I wish we were just pencil and paper
So I could erase her
Wish I could lie and say that goodbye gets easier with time
But in the back of my mind,
there's all of her lines that I can't rewrite
Maybe I'll learn to live with it
Maybe it is what it is
'Cuz we were tattoo I wanted everyone to see
We were handprints with the date stuck in concrete
We were initials in a heart carved on a tree
We were love notes passed in class, written out in ink
But now I wish we were just pencil and paper
So I could erase her
Erase her memory
Every smile she threw at me
Erase every word she ever said
And all those nights in my bed
And just start fresh
'Cuz we were a tattoo I wanted everyone to see
We were handprints with the date stuck in concrete
We were initials in a heart carved on a tree
We were love notes passed in class, written out in ink
But now I wish we were just pencil and paper
So I could erase her
So I could erase her
So I could erase her
Hmmm... yeah
