Henna

My first tattoo was for a woman that has long moved on
So when I saw you, I'd treat you like a henna
Wanna just try you on
Cause I can't help it, I'm selfish and still so young
And I wanted to see how you looked dancing on my arm

Don't leave your mark on me
Don't leave your mark on me

I can't come up with any reasons why I should not commit
But I feel fucking guilty when I see the way you've sunk into my skin
And even if it's love is it just because it settled in?
I never wanted to hurt you, dear
But you wandered right into my atmosphere
And I let you stay and find comfort here, oh didn't I?

Oh you left your mark on me
Oh you left your mark on me
Oh you left your mark on me
Henna

Please believe me there's a part of me that wants you to stay
And it kills me beyond reckoning to watch you slowly fade away
I could've fought for you or followed through
Or just left you alone
But maybe it's not in my temperament
To have something lasting or permanent
And I'm sorry I got you caught up in it, my little love

Oh you left your mark on me
Oh you left your mark on me
Oh you left your mark on me
Henna
