TAM or Tam may refer to:
Tan, the pinyin romanization of 譚, is the 67th most common surname in China. The surname Chen based on the various Min dialects also sometimes romanizes as "Tan".
Two origins have been suggested for the Tan surname:
A study by geneticist Yuan Yida has found that people with either of the two Tan surnames are especially concentrated in Hunan Province which would tend to support these accounts. This does not mean that they are the most common surnames in that province.
The cuneiform ud sign, also ut, and with numerous other syllabic uses, as well as multiple sumerogramic uses is a common sign for the mid 14th-century BC Amarna letters and the Epic of Gilgamesh. The sign is constructed upon the single vertical stroke , with various positionings of two wedge-strokes
at the left, sometimes approximately centered, or often inscribed upwards to the left, the second wedge-stroke (or 'angled line-stroke'), occasionally inscribed/ligatured upon the first. The wedge-strokes can have any size, are often smaller than the vertical, but as an example, Amarna letter EA 256, can be almost as large as the vertical.

I sat outside your house today
Just thinkin' you'll never learn
It's like the time I packed your things
And dropped 'em off where you were
I know you love to wash your car
So I left it in the lake
They say the strongest part of love is called hate
(Do you feel like I should)
Sit around with your touch
And your smell on my couch
And your hair in my brush
I loved you too much
(Do you think that I should)
Move along, change my phone
Get it on, I'll be gone
Treat him wrong 'til the day
That someone loves me the same way
How am I supposed to feel?
What exactly should I do?
I know you're no good for me
Yet and still I'm lovin' you
I'm must cite these lonely nights
Beggin' you to do me right
This time I just don't know
Heart says stay, mind says go
I knew I heard it in your voice
Something was wrong with our date
I feel I didn't have the choice
My heart was not in the way
Found out that I'm up in the cut
Some chick was wearing my face
You're lucky I'm in a good mood
Or she'll lay
Do you know how it feels
Sittin' 'round, smellin' sheets
Feelin' down, watchin' Heat
But my friends where you been
I'm with her again
Do you think that it's cool
To rock the fool in my house
I put you out, you come back in
We fight again, nobody wins
And baby, you should know that this is it
How am I supposed to feel?
What exactly should I do?
I know you're no good for me
Yet and still I'm lovin' you
I'm must cite these lonely nights
Beggin' you to do me right
This time I just don't know
Heart says stay, mind says go
How am I supposed to feel?
What exactly should I do?
I know you're no good for me
Yet and still I'm lovin' you
I'm must cite these lonely nights
Beggin' you to do me right
This time I just don't know
Heart says stay, mind says go
Oh oh oh oh
Hey, ooh, yeah
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Sometimes you can't let go
Even when your heart says so
I have to let you see
Your love will never be
?? with me you see
Can't let you, just don't need
I tried to love you still
I now know how it feels
How am I supposed to feel?
What exactly should I do?
I know you're no good for me
Yet and still I'm lovin' you
I'm must cite these lonely nights
Beggin' you to do me right
This time I just don't know
Heart says stay, mind says go
How am I supposed to feel?
What exactly should I do?
I know you're no good for me
Yet and still I'm lovin' you
I'm must cite these lonely nights
Beggin' you to do me right
This time I just don't know
Heart says stay, mind says go
How am I supposed to feel?
(It says go, go, go)
I know you're no good for me)
(Go go, go go)
I must cite these lonely nights
(Beggin' you to do me right)
This time I just don't know
Heart says stay, mind says go
How am I supposed to feel?
What exactly should I do?
I know you're no good for me
Yet and still I'm lovin' you
I'm must cite these lonely nights
Beggin' you to do me right
This time I just don't know
