White Flag lyrics - White Flag
I know you think that I shouldn't still love you
Or tell you that
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
Where's the sense in that?
I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were
But I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
I know I left too much mess and destruction
To come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of "it's over"
Then I'm sure that that makes sense
I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on
I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
Stoned lyrics - Dido
When you're stoned, baby, and I am drunk
And we make love, it seems a little desolate
It's hard sometimes not to look away
And think what's the point when I'm having to hold this fire down
I think I'll explode if I can't feel this free now
If you won't let me fall for you
Then you won't see the best that I would love to do for you
Instead, you will be missing me when I go
'Cause I'm bored of hanging out in your cold
When I feel loved, baby, I join the road
And the world moves with me
When I feel lost I just slip away
Silently, quietly take my things and go
And think what's the point, think where's the hope we're coming home
'Cause if you won't let me fall for you
Then you won't see the best that I would love to do for you
Instead, you will be missing me when I go
'Cause I'm bored of hanging out in your cold
And if you find one day
Find some freedom and relief
With this freedom maybe
Maybe you will find some peace
And with this peace baby
I hope it brings you back to me
Bring you home, take me home
'Cause if you won't let me fall for you
Then you won't see the best that I would love to do for you
Instead, you will be missing me when I go
'Cause I'm bored of hanging out in your cold
Oh, take me home
Oh, take me home
When you're stoned, baby, take me home
Oh
Life For Rent lyrics - Dido
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
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
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine
Mary's In India lyrics - Mary's In India
Danny is lonely 'cause Mary's in India now
She said she'd call but that was three weeks ago
She left all her things well, her books and her letters from him
And as the sun rises on Mary, it sets on him
Just dance, and just drink and just see the things
I'll probably never get a chance to see
Danny's not eating, he's drinking and sleeping in
I saw him last night at a party, he's definitely thin
He says he's happy, he looked pretty good but I think
That as the sun rises on Mary, it sets on him
And just dance, and just drink and just see the things
I'll probably never get a chance to see
Danny came over last night and I cooked for him
We talked about you Mary and how much we loved you still
He told me he's packed up your books and your letters and things
And as the sun sets on Mary, it's rising on him
And we danced and we drank and I've seen some things
You probably never got a chance to see
Don't worry Mary, 'cause I'm taking care of Danny
And he's taking care of me
See You When You're 40 lyrics - Dido
I've driven 'round in circles for three hours
It was bound to happen that I'd end up at yours
I temporarily forgot there's better days to come
I thought that I would give it just one more chance
'Cause I want, tonight, what I've been waiting for
But I found, tonight, what I'd been warned about
You think you are complicated, deep mystery to all
Well, it's taken me a while to see, you're not so special
All energy, no meaning with a lot of words
So paper thin that one real feeling could knock you down
And I've seen, tonight, what I'd been warned about
I'm gonna leave, tonight, before I change my mind
So see you when you're 40, lost and all alone
Being comforted by strangers you'll never need to know
Not sad because you lost me
But sad because you thought it was cool to be sad
You think misery will make you stand apart from the crowd
Well if you had walked past me today I wouldn't have picked you out
I wouldn't have picked you out
I wouldn't have picked you out
Now I've seen, tonight, how could I waste my time?
And I'll be on my way, and I won't be back
'Cause I've seen, tonight, what I've been warned about
You're just a boy, not a man, and I'm not coming back
And I'm not coming back
What I'd been warned about
Don't Leave Home lyrics - Dido
Like a ghost don't need a key
Your best friend I've come to be
Please don't think of getting up for me
You don't even need to speak
When I've been here for just one day
You'll already miss me if I go away
So close the blinds and shut the door
You won't need other friends anymore
Oh, don't leave home
Oh, don't leave home
And if you're cold, I'll keep you warm
If you're low, just hold on
'Cause I will be your safety
Oh, don't leave home
And I arrived when you were weak
I'll make you weaker, like a child
Now all your love you give to me
When your heart is all I need
Oh, don't leave home
Oh, don't leave home
And if you're cold, I'll keep you warm
If you're low, just hold on
'Cause I will be your safety
Oh, don't leave home
Oh how quiet, quiet the world can be
When it's just you and little me
Everything is clear, everything is new
So you won't be leaving, will you?
And if you're cold, I'll keep you warm
If you're low, just hold on
'Cause I will be your safety
And I will be your safety
And I will be your safety
Oh, don't leave home
Who Makes You Feel lyrics - Dido
I don't touch you the way I used to
And I don't call and write when I'm away
We don't make love as often as we did do
What couldn't wait now waits and usually goes away
But listen and think when I say
Oh, but listen and think when I say
Who makes you feel the way I make you feel?
Who loves you and knows you the way I do?
Who touches you and holds you quite like I do?
Who makes you feel like I make you feel?
I don't mind if you come home late
And I don't ever ask you where you've been
I just assume if there's a problem, you'd tell me
But listen and think when I say
Oh, but listen and think when I say
Who makes you feel the way I make you feel?
Who loves you and knows you the way I do?
Who touches you and holds you quite like I do?
Who makes you feel like I make you feel?
Who makes you feel like I make you feel?
Who makes you feel like I make you feel?
Being weak, when I am strong
Being seen for who you are
Being sad and lost but not alone
But listen and think when I say
Oh, but listen and think when I say
Who makes you feel the way I make you feel?
Who loves you and knows you the way I do?
Who touches you and holds you quite like I do?
Who makes you feel like I make you feel?
Who makes you feel the way I make you feel?
Who loves you and knows you the way I do?
Who touches you and holds you quite like I do?
Who makes you feel like I make you feel?
Who makes you feel like I make you feel?
Who makes you feel like I make you feel?
Who makes you feel like I make you feel?
Sand In My Shoes lyrics - Dido
Two weeks away, feels like the whole world should have changed
But I'm home now and things still look the same
I think I'll leave it 'til tomorrow to unpack
Try to forget for one more night that I'm back in my flat
On the road where the cars never stop
Going through the night
To a life where I can't watch the sunset
I don't have time, I don't have time
I've still got sand in my shoes
And I can't shake the thought of you
I should get on, forget you
But why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye
Anything else would've been confused
But I wanna see you again
Tomorrow's back to work and down to sanity
Should run a bath and then clear up the mess I made before I left here
Try to remind myself that I was happy here before
I knew that I could get on a plane and fly away
From the road where the cars never stop
Going through the night
To a life where I can watch the sunset
And take my time, take all our time
I've still got sand in my shoes
And I can't shake the thought of you
I should get on, forget you
But why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye
Anything else would've been confused
But I wanna see you again
I wanna see you again
I wanna see you again
Two weeks away, all it takes
To change and turn me around I've fallen
I walked away and never said
That I wanted to see you again
I've still got sand in my shoes
And I can't shake the thought of you
I should get on, forget you
But why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye
Anything else would've been confused
But I wanna see you again
I've still got sand in my shoes
And I can't shake the thought of you
I should get on, forget you
But why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye
Anything else would've been confused
But I wanna see you again
I wanna see you again
I wanna see you again
Do You Have A Little Time lyrics - Dido
If you are feeling low and lost today
You're probably doing too much again
You spend all your hours just rushing around
Do you have a little time?
Do you have a little time for me?
Slow down my love, you're confusing me
And if you're feeling stressed, just try calling
You spend your time waiting for anyone to see
Do you have a little time?
Do you have a little time for me?
If you should stop for a while
You'll find me standing by
Over here at the side of your life
I'd like to hold you still
Remind you of what you've missed
If you have a little time
If you have a little time, that is
Why do you still run when you could walk with me?
Life will pass you by when you move this quickly
Why can you see when you're spinning around?
Do you have a little time?
Do you have a little time for me?
If you should stop for a while
You'll find me standing by
Over here at the side of your life
I'd like to hold you still
Remind you of what you've missed
If you have a little time
If you have a little time, that is
If you let me listen I'll make you feel clear
You spend your time waiting for anyone to say
If you should stop for a while
You'll find me standing by
Over here at the side of your life
I'd like to hold you still
Remind you of what you've missed
If you have a little time
If you have a little time, that is
If you should stop for a while
You'll find me standing by
Over here at the side of your life
I'd like to hold you still
Remind you of what you've missed
If you have a little time
If you have a little time, that is
This Land Is Mine lyrics - Dido
From behind these walls I hear your song, oh sweet words
The music that you play lights up my world
The sweetest that I've heard
Could it be that I've been touched and turned? Oh Lord, please
Finally, finally things are changing
This land is mine but I'll let you rule
I'll let you navigate and demand
Just as long as you know, this land is mine
So find your home and settle in
Oh, I'm ready to let you in
Just as long as we know, this land is mine
After all the battles and the wars, the scars and loss
Well, I'm still the queen of my domain
And feeling stronger now
The walls are down a little more each day, since you came
Finally, finally things are changing
This land is mine but I'll let you rule
I'll let you navigate and demand
Just as long as you know, this land is mine
So find your home and settle in
Oh, I'm ready to let you in
Just as long as we know, this land is mine
Follow the days I've traveled alone
In this cold and colorless place till now
It's what I had to pay
This land is mine but I'll let you rule
I'll let you navigate and demand
Just as long as you know, this land is mine
So find your home and settle in
Oh, I'm ready to let you in
Just as long as we know, this land is mine
This land is mine but I'll let you rule
I'll let you navigate and demand
Just as long as you know, this land is mine
See The Sun lyrics - Dido
I'm coming 'round to open the blinds
You can't hide here any longer
My God you need to rinse those puffy eyes
You can't lie still any longer
And yes they'll ask where you've been
And you'll have to tell them, again and again
And you probably don't want to hear tomorrow's another day
But I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
Come on take my hand
We're going for a walk, I know you can
You can wear anything, as long as it's not black
And please don't mourn forever, she's not coming back
And yes they'll ask where you've been
And you'll have to tell them, again and again
And you probably don't want to hear tomorrow's another day
But I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
Do you remember telling me you'd found the sweetest thing of all
You said that one day of this was worth dying for
So be thankful you knew her at all
But it's no more
And you probably don't want to hear tomorrow's another day
But I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you probably don't want to hear tomorrow's another day
But I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
I promise you you'll see the sun again
See the sun again
See the sun again
See the sun again
See the sun again
See the sun again
See the sun again
See the sun again
See the sun again
Closer lyrics - Dido
So leave your taxi waiting
And turn and close my door
And sit back down where you were sitting
A little closer than before
And when you look that serious
It just makes me want you more
And I've been meaning to tell you
The closer you get, the better I feel
The closer you are, the more I see
Why everyone says that I look happier
When you're around
The closer you get, the better I feel
And yes I know you're nervous
Never seen you so unsure
You haven't touched your food tonight
And you're drinking more and more
And there's no need to hurry
Take your time I'll still be here
And I've been meaning to tell you
The closer you get, the better I feel
The closer you are, the more I see
Why everyone says that I look happier
When you're around the better I feel
The closer you get, the better you see
The closer you are, the more I see
Why everyone says that I look happier
When you're around
The closer you get, the better I feel
The better I feel
We've been circling for time baby
We're coming down to land tonight
The wait is over and now it's easy
Everything's fine
The closer you get, the better I feel
The closer you are, the more I see
Why everyone says that I look happier
When you're around, the better I feel
The closer you get, the better you see
The closer you are, the more I see
Why everyone says that I look happier
When you're around
The closer you get, the better I feel
