Discover the story of the song > Tatouage – Pierre Lapointe

The protagonist expresses their pain by getting tattoos on their skin, as if their body is holding all the tears that come from the clouds. They carry their love for their partner in their voice, like a mother comforting a child, and want their partner to remember them, their laughter, and their joys, even if they are no longer together. The tattoos on the protagonist's partner's skin will protect them, and the protagonist keeps the memory of death on their heart as a tattoo. They cherish this strange inheritance, and in their hands they hold each of their partner's smiles for the mornings when they can no longer see what destiny has in store for them.
