好听的英文歌曲：Sealed With A Kiss - Chris De Burgh

在《Life for Rent》中，Dido说她也只是一个会彷徨迷惘、感觉生命漂泊不定的平凡人，但是她同时也告诉人们不要怕冒险尝试，要追寻自己想要的生活。Dido的歌声虽然依然飘渺，却远远地眷顾着你的喜怒哀乐及爱恨嗔痴。

Dido: Life for Rent

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

I never stick around quite long enough to make it

I apologize¹ 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 deserve² nothing more than I get

Cos nothing I have is truly³ mine

 

I've always thought that I would love to live by the sea

To travel the world alone and live my life more simply⁴

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

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 shield⁵ 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

Cos 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

Cos nothing I have is truly mine

Cos nothing I have is truly mine

Cos nothing I have is truly mine

Cos nothing I have is truly mine



 从未有一个地方真正被我称之为家

因为我总是那么行色匆匆

再次抱歉我并不爱你

但我并不介意你没有为此心碎

因为这只是一个念头，仅仅是一个念头

如果我的人生不属于我自己，而我也无法拥有它

那么我并不值得拥有更多

因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我

 

我一直以为自己想要傍海而居

独自周游世界去过更简单的生活

我不知道这个梦想为何没能实现

因为其实并没有什么阻碍了我

其实这只是一个念头，仅仅是一个念头

如果我的人生不属于我自己，而我也无法拥有它

那么我并不值得拥有更多

因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我

如果我的人生不属于我自己，而我也无法拥有它

那么我并不值得拥有更多

因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我

 

当我把心灵当成盾牌而不愿卸下防备

当我如此恐惧失败以致于根本不去尝试

那我怎么能说我是活着的？

如果我的人生不属于我自己，而我也无法拥有它

那么我并不值得拥有更多

因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我

如果我的人生不属于我自己，而我也无法拥有它

那么我并不值得拥有更多

因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我

因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我

因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我

因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我
