Alice Merton - No Roots Lyrics
[Intro]I like digging holes and hiding things inside themWhen I grow old I hope I won't forget to find them'Cause, I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night[Verse 1]I build a home and wait for someone to tear it downThen pack it up in boxes, head for the next town running'Cause, I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night[Pre-Chorus]And a thousand times I've seen this roadA thousand times[Chorus]I've got no rootsBut my home was never on the groundI've got no rootsBut my home was never on the groundI've got no rootsI've got no rootsI've got no rootsBut my home was never on the groundI've got no rootsBut my home was never on the groundI've got no rootsI've got no roots[Verse 2]I like standing still but that's just a wishful planAsk me where I come from, I'll say a different landBut I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night[Verse 3]I count gates and numbers, then play the guessing gameIt's just the place that changes, the rest is still the sameBut I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night[Pre-Chorus]And a thousand times I've seen this roadA thousand times[Chorus]I've got no rootsBut my home was never on the groundI've got no rootsBut my home was never on the groundI've got no rootsI've got no rootsI've got no rootsBut my home was never on the groundI've got no rootsBut my home was never on the groundI've got no rootsI've got no roots[Bridge]I like digging holes, hiding things inside themWhen I grow old, I won't forget to find themI like digging holes, hiding things inside themWhen I grow old, I won't forget to find them[Outro]I've got no rootsNo rootsI've got no rootsBut my home was never on the groundI've got no rootsBut my home was never on the groundI've got no rootsI've got no rootsI've got no rootsBut my home was never on the groundI've got no rootsBut my home was never on the groundI've got no rootsI've got no rootsNo!
