[Verse 1] I pad beside you slow When the world gets loud My nose knows your storm Before you speak it out I keep my eyes on you Every hall, every door One paw on your shadow I’m built for this and more [Pre-Chorus] And if your hands shake I lean in close If your heart slips back I’m the one who knows [Chorus] I’m like a tattoo Over your heart Once I put my love on you It never comes apart It’s under your skin So write my name on everything I’m your soul dog, my soulmate And you’ll never forget me (tattoo over your heart) (write my name on everything) [Verse 2] Apollo’s on your tongue When you call me home I’m the little steady pulse In the bone and the bone Through the clinic doors Through the crowded room I’m the proof that love can stay And still make room for you [Pre-Chorus] And when the dark gets close I know my part I stand between the fear And the beat of your heart [Chorus] I’m like a tattoo Over your heart Once I put my love on you It never comes apart It’s under your skin So write my name on everything I’m your soul dog, my soulmate And you’ll never forget me (tattoo over your heart) (write my name on everything) [Bridge] If the leash hangs loose I still stay near If you lose your way I’m the one right here No matter where you go No matter what you do I’m the mark you carry And I carry you [Final Chorus] I’m like a tattoo Over your heart Once I put my love on you It never comes apart It’s under your skin So write my name on everything I’m your soul dog, my soulmate And you’ll never forget me (tattoo over your heart) (write my name on everything) (my soulmate)
