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

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!

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.

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.

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.
