Life for rent

_____________________________________________________________________________________

I haven't really ever 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 lean to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
Cos 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 my life more simply
I have no idea what's happened to that dream
Cos 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
Cos 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...

楚天碧靄 回複 悄悄話 很高興你也喜歡Dido,好像應該握個手。:)
她這個專輯裏的歌好聽的不少。
因為淡然,所以沉靜中附著的憂傷不做作,反而讓人有共鳴。
周末快樂!
雪燈 回複 悄悄話 "Life for rent" ,把“整個生命都出租出去”,不屬於任何人,無根地飄蕩,聽起來有一些傷感。後來從網上檔了整張唱片。聽了,發覺它自始至終都被一股淡淡的哀傷所籠罩。據Dido自己說:“這些歌曲表達了我對現在生活的感受以及將來如何生活。它講述了要勇於接受機會的挑戰並學著去充實的生活。人們很容易自我滿足或者輕易地從這個世界離開,這張專輯將永遠提醒我不要那樣做。” 我看為了寫這些歌曲,Dido一定注入了很多對人生感悟,比如這句 “But if my life is for rent and I don't lean to buy,Well I deserve nothing more than I get,'Cos nothing I have is truly mine”,聽到這樣的詞句似乎讓人不由地共鳴般的感傷。歌曲中所傳達出來的那種沉靜、恬淡,略帶些憂傷的味道,展示著她的執著與堅強;加上Dido舒緩的吟唱,給人一種仿佛天籟般的享受。一個人靜靜的聆聽,特別有味道。

非常喜歡,謝謝共享! :)
