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...
