New Tattoo

18 years and building Sharing all that can be for two After our hair has turned completely silver You're still perfect like a new tattoo A cheap can of beer in one hand Marlboro Reds 'til we were blue Grasped your other hand and haven't let it go Sometimes you sting me like a new tattoo Experiences compressing Years pass by like weeks Chapters written faster than cars drive down our street If I could start it over, I'd walk over the same line Especially the star on my arm from 1999 A little sleep and a couple of lifetimes later Our kids just prove that it was true No matter how you think you look this evening You still look like a new tattoo 18 years and building Sharing all that can be for two Now that our hair has turned completely silver You will always be as perfect as a new tattoo
