一个来自英国的清爽女孩蒂朵，唱着一首都会风味极重的歌：租借的心居无定所，明明渴望爱却宁愿疏离，害怕再次受伤，放弃尝试，筑起心防——旋律清晰流畅，感悟自然透彻，沧海桑田之后一切都会看得云淡风轻：“我一直以为，我会喜欢住在海边，独身周游世界，生活得更简单”——只是，太轻巧了些，也有些无情，你觉得呢？

Life For Rent
Dido

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 aren'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
'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 my life 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

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

参考译文

我仍未找到可以称为家的地方，我永远不能足够坚持使它成为现实
我再次抱歉我并未坠入爱河，但这并不意味着我介意你是否真的心碎

这只是个想法，只是个想法

但如果我的心本来就属于漂泊，我却不懂如何去收回它
好吧，我只配得到我该得到的，因为我所拥有的并没有什么真的是我的

我一直以为，我会喜欢住在海边。独身周游世界，生活得更简单些
我也不知道究竟这个梦想意味着什么，因为实在没什么能再阻拦我了

这只是个想法，只是个想法

但如果我的心本来就属于漂泊，我却不懂如何去收回它
好吧，我只配得到我该得到的，因为我所拥有的并没有什么真的是我的

我的心是一张盾牌我也不会让它倒下，我太害怕失败所以我甚至放弃了尝试
好吧，我怎么能说我是活着的，如果我的心是漂泊的？
