Tattoo was the Swedish entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 in Liverpool performed by Loreen. This was her second appearance at the contest following her dominant victory in 2012 with Euphoria.

It qualified from the first semifinal in 2nd place. In the final, it was performed 9th following Spain and preceding Albania. At the close of voting, it was declared the winner with 583 points, giving Sweden its record-tying 7th victory and Loreen a place in the history books as the second person (and first female artist) to win the contest twice.

Lyrics[]

I don't wanna go
But baby, we both know
This is not our time
It's time to say goodbye
Until we meet again
'Cause this is not the end
It will come a day
When we will find our way

Violins playing and the angels crying
When the stars align then I'll be there

No, I don't care about them all
'Cause all I want is to be loved
And all I care about is you
You're stuck on me like a tattoo
No, I don't care about the pain
I'll walk through fire and through rain
Just to get closer to you
You're stuck on me like a tattoo

I'm letting my hair down
I'm taking it cool
You got my heart in your hand
Don't lose it, my friend
It's all that I got

Violins playing and the angels crying
Whеn the stars align then I'll be thеre

No, I don't care about them all
'Cause all I want is to be loved
And all I care about is you
You're stuck on me like a tattoo
No, I don't care about the pain
I'll walk through fire and through rain
Just to get closer to you
You're stuck on me like a tattoo

No, I don't care about them all
'Cause all I want is to be loved
And all I care about is you
You're stuck on me like a tattoo
No, I don't care about the pain
I'll walk through fire and through rain
Just to get closer to you
You're stuck on me like a tattoo

All I care about is love
Oh, oh, oh
All I care about is love
You're stuck on me like a tattoo
