Lyrics
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
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
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
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 and everything is new
So you won't be leaving will you
Oh don't leave home, oh don't leave home
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 - Hudba
My wife died right in my arms from breast cancer last October which still haunts me today. In Memory of Stella 1988-2021 it really gets to me being here without her I always wake up wishing she was here but lord knows she'll be waiting for me at the pearly gates in the bright blue sky!
sorry for your loss man but i'm glad she wasn't alone when she passed she's where she wanted to be i think
@@rolandofgilead43 Thank you yeah it was really hard to say goodbye but now I'm remarried.
@joshua leggans your welcome you may be remarried good for you but she's not forgotten and though I never met you or her guess she'd want you too be happy.
I'm so sorry to hear that man. You have my condolences. At least she is in a better place now.
@@JoshuaLeggansYou're a very good liar
I was thinking about suicide and one night I heard this song on the radio. It was magical...
A few years have passed and I'm still alive, I'm still here and doing better. It's magical to hear a song like this in this hardest moment. Thank you DIDO!
You are truly special. I can understand how it feels like that. Life gets hard for me too. My mother passed away when I was 6, and I've gotten so close to my father, and this song makes me feel better when I'm feeling down. Best wishes 🙂
-Giovanni Norero, manager of GLC Parakeets CZcams.
May god bless Dido forever
Don't do it!
❤ we love you, thank God for this talent which warmed your heart
It's January 21, 2022. This song never gets old. Thank you Dido

One of the greatest under rated singers of all time.
Her song writing is second to none.
I agree with you...she has such powerful underated music
She's not underrated, though
@@Brooke52528 compared to Taylor, yah she is
Yeah.
most underrated singer. Meaningful lyrics.
+DEEPAK SAINI she's sooo underrated
Yes.Her and Nicole Scherzinger.
And Anna Nalick
Dido is not underrarted : she's not a mass product - she's a classic and classy singer only for conoisseurs and sensitive people
i agree, the LPs from adele are weak, 2-3-4 god songs, the rest rubbish, dido is special,dido isnt narcisstic,ike other superstars, shes so beautiful, i dont wanna know,how many guys in her life had flirt and more....,some girl are going mad,insane in the membrane :),but dido not, and we can see, this superstar-red carpet bulloshit,its not important to her,and i like it really,but i miss her songs,soft,sensitive,with message,pure! great
When my dad passed in 2005 I would get in my car at night and get on the interstate and drive while playing this song on repeat, trying to holding back tears that blinded my vision at times. I can't explain the feeling but this song and the starry night made me feel in a way calm at peace and okay at such a hard time in my life.
i understand your feeling. I have lived this feeling too when i loss my father...
I was in the same situation hearing this song while I remembered my dad
You comment had me in tears OMG...
RIP, beautiful words.
The production of this song is so immaculate and impeccable.
If you grew up on this kind of music, THEN YOUR CHILDHOOD WAS AWESOME!!
Para mí sí me dices exactamente de q año es está canción ? Es Classica y pero ya tiene más de 10 años xq es reantigua
@@will-eq9uh I'm not sure but I think 2003/2004.
@@valentinmunch2941 si es verdad ,son de esos años
I grew up on this music and my childhood was horrible lmao
The music popular at this time were boy bands and pop idols. You had to go to the old person music channel VH1 for this music.
I miss Dido. Such a talented singer with beautiful singers, I don't remember any other artist giving me that feeling of content, nsotalgia and happiness, even when I heard her 'sad' songs.
Not sad songs. Uplifting
Я тоже скучаю, брат.
Her voice is beautiful.
Shows Rollo and Dido's talent here. The most beautiful song and vocals masking the real dark message of drug addiction and loneliness.
Like a lot of people I assume this was a cute love song but once you actually know what it's about it becomes a solid gold masterpiece.
God, Dido is so attractive. She has a very unusual voice, but very nice.
She has a great voice allways has had
i swear,her songs are the best for a roadtrip in your car,if you're even going down the highway, especially in a place with a landscape to look at or somewhere quiet, dido is the best you can listen to
I feel you sister
What when your about to pick up your next fix,you know this is about Drug addiction,dont you?
Loving this
You’re absolutely right.. as a matter of fact, I love you for that
Sol Adrián she sings to our souls. Wonderful
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 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
If you're cold, I'll keep you warm
If you're alone, just hold on
'Cause I will be your safety
Oh, don't leave home
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'll need
Oh, don't leave home
Oh, don't leave home
If you're cold, I'll keep you warm
If you're alone, 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 and everything is new
So you won't be leaving will you?
If you're cold, I'll keep you warm
If you're alone, just hold on
'Cause I will be your safety
Oh, don't leave home
'Cause I will be your safety,
I will be your safety,
I will be your safety,
Ohh Don't leave home.
Awesome
So many mistakes
RIP to my aunt.. This was her favorite song.
May his soul rest in peace

MAY SHE HAS HEAVENLY BLESSINGS AMEN
Every time you hear it, she's with you.😙😍😍😍😍

We’re not searching for old songs…we’re searching for memories ❤
They bring us back into the past, for a moment...
@@gnulinuxdebian we will smile and cry
This song is a masterpiece!
Maurice Barnes my favorite song.
@@hectorgonzalez9170 White flag is the best for me
@@hectorgonzalez9170 My favourite song too.
@@caiom.5084
I love White Flag.
I have always loved this song. I know it's about drug addiction, but when I listen to this song I think of anxiety and depression, and how the symptoms speaks to me.. Sometimes you just isolate yourself from the world because of it... it won't let you improve your life, just bring you down
People play it at weddings, not knowing true meaning. Beautiful song one her best
Oh. It's about drugs ?
@@chopra5952 yeah it's the most beautiful song ever written from the perspective of the drugs destroying a person's life
"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"
"And I arrived when you were weak
I'll make you weaker, like a child"
Que hermosa epoca de nuestra juventud, recuerdo ver este video y transportarme a ese lugar como si estuviera ahi, disfrutando de la naturaleza y esa tranquilidad que da la voz de Dido y hasta la fecha disfruto la paz de estar entre los arboles, el mar, el cielo y el campo. Dido sera eterna,
Dido is a musical blessing to the world!
true!
Personally think this is her best song
supastar you know nothing Jon Snow
This, white flag, and life for rent are her top 3 imo
Not, is isobel.
Even "Sand in my shoes" , "White flag" , "Hunter" , "Life for rent" and "Here with me" .
Her music is dangerous, her voice is soo sweet and calm. Her message is the danger. Her words can strike you right dead centre in the heart. She truly is the soft voiced queen of heartbreak
well said!
A very good description, well observed.
Whaaat ! Perfect description
Never thought that listening to this in 2021 would bring back all the memories 🥂
Her voice is just pure gold
This is one of my favorite Dido songs, although it's a sad song and sort of depressive, it's beautiful, I found out that Dido lost her Dad when she was very young, I assume that's why most of her songs are sorta melancholic and sad, but I like her!!!
Timeless song, timeless voice. Who is still here in 2019 and beyond
☝️me 😁
Same here IT's 2019 and still listening. I remember when the music video cameo out in 2003, much music was spending IT all the time in TV. What great times.
Yesterday I hear this live and was so amazing!
Still here, it's my go to chill song
Yeah no longer a comment section, more like a calendar these days
Jesus I forgot how great Dido is! We need more of this! The World needs more of this!
Brian Gonzales She just announced a new album.
Release date: 8 March 2019
This is not a video, this is art ♥️
Video can be an art, you know that ?
It's both
Her voice is therapeutic
How could anyone NOT simply love this girl and her music?
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard
🎵 2005: Ahhhh, Dido!
Sempre linda e talentosa!!!
😉✌❤🎙🎼🎧🇧🇷
Dido is incredible ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉💞💞💞✨✨✨✨🌹
Don't Leave Home always reminds me of a very toxic relationship I had. This friend had a severe drug problem (in addition to other mental problems) and I thought of myself as his savior and that I'd be the the one to make it all better for him. Silly me. I had just bought Life For Rent and one night I was in bed listening to it. This song was playing when the phone rang and it was him, crying and having a major meltdown, caused by drug abuse and his own paranoia. I got out of bed and took a cab in the middle of the night, traveled across the city I lived in, just to be there for him and the whole time this song played in my head. I stayed by his side for many days and nights, putting my own life and needs on hold just to support him and help him recover. There I was, losing myself because I thought I'd be his "safety". Eventually it all fell apart, I wised up to his manipulations, and I could not listen to this song for years. I was a lot older, wiser and more jaded when I listened to this song again and discovered what Dido really meant to say. I was shocked, but at the same time made perfect sense. So this song was closure to me in many ways, and the coincidence between my situation and the song was part of a bigger lesson that I needed to go through... and for that I'll always thank Dido.
What did she mean to say?
This song is about her addiction to drugs.drugs is talking to her via lyrics.
@@tadaasam2036 no. She was never addicted to drugs. But she sang it from a drug's perspective
@@timsteele9372 she's explained it several times but she sang it from the drug's point of view as it enters a person's life, and takes control over them
@@zimzimzalabim she was. Have read her article about it too.
Great voice,great personality beautiful soul ..no singer gives me this calm soothing feeling like Dido....her voice has set a standard even in generations to come.
thanks papadin for reminding me of this song
He’s the reason I’m here too…I love the song
This woman is so awesome.!!!!
Such a classic masterpiece from this class of a lady..Almost all of her songs are just life changing....
So dreamy even after all these years.. as timeless as they come.
Still Love you Dido in 2021 , i miss the old days , i can't find love anywhere else except your songs ,thank you for being here
What a singer. One of the greatest female singer of all time in my humble opinion
Relaxing..she has got beautiful voice..
Thank you for reminding me of this, William Papadin. 1:08
This is the addictive drug singing to the addict. "Like a ghost don't need a key" "Your best friend I've come to be". I am a retired cop and saw many a person suffer and some die from overdoses, wrecked families trying to save an addicted family member. It visited my home and took my 22 yr old stepson in 1999 after an eight year war. He is better off dead than imprisoned or addicted. His sister is now 47 and a long time addict and will eventually die from "it".My wife and I took her 4 yr old son away from her and have custody and him at age 17 now. If anyone ever tries to start him on drugs they will suddenly disappear. Thanks for the beautiful song Dido. It has meaning to me.
My MOM loved this song I miss her thanks DIDO yours earth angel GOD BLESS U
Que preciosa es Dido. Qué voz celestial!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
que lindos recuerdos me trae este cd, cada tema guarda un sentimiento,un secreto , un llanto,una pasion, soledad, me hace volar a esos tiempos, me hace amar cada vez su musica
When I was a little boy I did the washing up every day for years and listened to music while doing it, this was one of the songs on the CD. Brings me back so many emotions and pictures. Thank you Dido.
Thanks Dido
Когда я был маленький,слово плей лист вообще не существовало, я ровестник етой замечательной певицы мы росли с бабинами,касетами,и флешками,время хороших песен осталось в истории!
Evertime I listen to this song, I always end up crying 😢, I don't know why....?
It's so..... emotional
everytime I hear Dido , I get the chills, shes such an amazing singer...all I need in my cd player is Dido, every song is amazing.
Dido is one of the most talented femal singer and songwriter in the world. She composes high quality songs, moreover she is a very classy woman. Should be an example for many too much violent and useless transgressive singers nowadays!
I totally agree with you.
+marco brenni you forgot to say shes absolutely gorgeous too.......!!!
+Bryan Ladden : Agreed ! A wonderful gorgeous classy lady !
+marco brenni I don't believe she needs to be an example for anyone. There is no one way any female singer, or male for that matter SHOULD be. You need to calm down with the judgement and your ideas of who people should be or what they should be doing. And "violent"? Give me a break. I'm so tired of people like you. Too bad you didn't throw in the "there's no good music today" so your comment could be a perfect mess of total nonsense. But nonsense goes on youtube and it goes over really well. That's why I always regret even reading it.

Nostalgic feelings, my only true friend, Love you dad RIP
Beautiful, Powerful,and Compelling!! I Love Her !!!
I've heard this song many times in passing over the years, but this is the first time I've really stopped to listen to the lyrics. The only thing that stood out to me before was the line "I'll be your safety", so I assumed it was a cutesy love song. But now I realize how dark it really is. "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. I arrived when you were weak; I'll make you weaker like a child." It was written about addiction--the addictive substance is singing to the person who is dependent on it. So for those of you who were thinking of using it at a wedding song, DON'T lol.
Oh it's not a love song at all. It's a song to an addict from the object of his or her addiction.
Benjamin Flanders true love is an addiction
Mohammad Yes, but it's not quite as sinister as the song's lyrics are.This addiction is debilitating. "You won't need other friends anymore" and "I'll make you weaker, like a child." Infatuation perhaps could do that, but I'd argue not true love.
i would rather to listen to it as a love song :) don't mind the hidden meanings
Benjamin Flanders Love can be incredibly siniester, you'd be surprised.
beautiful song even after 4000 times
Matthew Katie Holmes joker
Katie homes love 💕 massager Matthew day
ABSOLUTELY
Quality il always remain quality even after so many years this song is quality
Omg I love this singer 💙
Oh Dido you do it Every time your voice your lyrics . Nobody else like Dido. I don't know anyone. Beautiful. 💕
Música linda,me traz uma paz e uma saudade de um tempo que infelizmente não volta mais!😍
Esta canción sin duda alguna es una obra de arte ¡Bravo Dido!
♫♪
Sweetest love song, and most beautiful singer.
One of the most surprisingly brutal songs out there. Totally messed up how sweet and innocent it sounds, with only a couple of the lyrics giving it away!
yeah,i used to love this when it came out,i was like 8,i bought the life for rent record because i was obsessed with the dido songs i watched on the music channels,it was my first record,i played it over and over,know every damn lyric since i was 8 and never got tired of it, and i guess i thought this one was about love or a friendship (i'm not even from a country that speaks english so i didn't give much thought to it), and now that i'm older is weird to see the dark meaning behind it,but i think i can relate to it even more,it can be about many kinds of addictive things,i never had any addiction to substances or illegal stuff or anything like that but i had it rough in other things and emotional stuff and i can feel the lyrics more than i did 13 years ago. this woman is amazing,proud of the little me and the great taste i had in music,lol.
PS: oh god,i wrote so much,sorry for the speech xD
@ it's not s dark song. Is it? Btw thanks for the story
@@lillylovesrain7072 i think she wrote it to a friend or something i once read, it talks about drug addiction from the drug's point of view, but can apply to any addiction really
@ ok
that type of song it's really clean, when i listen i feeling very well inside my soul. thank you DIDO (y)
Eu tof
THE BEST OF THE BEST DIDO NUMBER ONE IN THE WORLD
2024 my best woman singer ever ❤❤❤❤Dido❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Her, this song, her voice all gorgeous. ..this should have been nominated for a grammy
You are right.i love her
she did not get nominated for a grammy
as SHE has not sold her soul to the devil that why ... that why we love her music .. : )
During this time with pandemic, wars and all other shit your voice is such a sanctuary. So many years passed since i`ve heard this song first time, but it still gives me this miracle feeling of calm and harmony. We need music like this.
she is a female version of Rob Thomas.. Dido is always phenomenal... standing in the queue of the greatest female voices that have surfaced out in the musical arena.
A precious love/friendship declaration ♥
I love Dido
This song, her voice, this video is so magical and peaceful
Memories course through my veins..Dido...you spoke to me at the right place of my life. Till today...@ solid
Sorry but not sorry not only is your singing voice beautiful but you're just beyond lovely. The song is wonderful and that's because your voice is so ....wonderful.
