The new year has finally arrived
Innocent with silken unmarked skin
Only for a moment then it flies
And the sound of the tattoo begins

[Refrain]
Breathing softly, it will get to the core
Breathing softly, it will get to the core
It’s indelible, all you need to know
Indelible on the body of your soul

Everything is relative in time
The scars will heal and then what will remain
We’re left with a mysterious design
beautiful reminder of the pain

[Refrain]
Breathing softly, it will get to the core
Breathing softly, it will get to the core
It’s indelible, all you need to know
Indelible on the body of your soul...
