Dido - Life For Rent lyrics

I haven't ever really found a place that I call home

I never stick around quite long enough to make it

I apologize that once again I'm not in love

But it's not as if I mind

That your heart ain't exactly breaking

It's just a thought, only a thought

But if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy

Well I deserve nothing more than I get

'Cause nothing I have is truly mine

I've always thought

That I would love to live by the sea

To travel the world alone

And live more simply

I have no idea what's happened to that dream

'Cause there's really nothing left here to stop me

It's just a thought, only a thought

But if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy

Well I deserve nothing more than I get

'Cause nothing I have is truly mine

If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy

Well I deserve nothing more than I get

'Cause nothing I have is truly mine

While my heart is a shield and I won't let it down

While I am so afraid to fail so I won't even try

Well how can I say I'm alive

If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy

Well I deserve nothing more than I get

'Cause nothing I have is truly mine

If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy

Well I deserve nothing more than I get

'Cause nothing I have is truly mine (4x)
