Dido - Life For Rent


I haven't ever really found that I call home

从没有一个地方让我有家的感觉

I never stick around quite long enough to make it

我永远那么行色勿勿

apologize¹ that once again I' m not in love

很抱歉我又伤了你的心

But it's not as if I mind that your heart ain't exactly breaking

但我并不介意你没有为此心碎

It's just a thought, only a thought

因为这仅仅是一个念头

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

如果我的人生不属于我自己，而我也无法拥有它

Well I deserve² nothing more than I get

那么我并不值得拥有更多

Cause nothing I have is truly³ mine

因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我

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

我一直以为自己想要傍海而居

To travel the world alone and live more simply⁴

独自周游世界去过更简单的生活

I have no idea what's happened to that dream

我不知道这个梦想为何没能实现

Cause there's really nothing to stop me

因为其实并没有什么阻碍了我。

It's just a thought, only a thought

这只是一个想法,一个想法而已

While my heart is a shield⁵ and I won't let it down

当我把心灵当成盾牌而不愿卸下防备

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

Well how can I say I'm alive?

又怎么能说我还活着呢?还能说人生是我的呢?
