Alice Merton - No Roots lyrics

[Intro:]

I like digging holes and hiding things inside them,

When I grow all the 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 down,

Then pack it up in boxes, head for the next time around,

‘Cause I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night.

[Pre-Chorus:]

And a thousand times I've seen this road,

A thousand times!

[Chorus:]

I've got no roots!

But my home was never on the ground.

I've got no roots!

But my home was never on the ground.

I've got no roots!

I've got no roots!

I've got no roots!

But my home was never on the ground.

I've got no roots!

But my home was never on the ground.

I've got no roots!

I've got no roots!

[Verse 2:]

I like standing still for, that's just the wishful plan,

Ask me where I come from, I'll say a different land,

But I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night.

I count the numbers, and play the guessing game,

It's just the place that changes, the rest is still the same,

But I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night.

[Pre-Chorus:]

And a thousand times I've seen this road,

A thousand times!

[Chorus:]

I've got no roots!

But my home was never on the ground.

I've got no roots!

But my home was never on the ground.

I've got no roots!

I've got no roots!

I've got no roots!

But my home was never on the ground.

I've got no roots!

But my home was never on the ground.

I've got no roots!

I've got no roots!

[Bridge:]

I like digging holes, hiding things inside them,

When I grow old, I won't forget to find them.

I like digging holes, hiding things inside them,

When I grow old, I won't forget to find them.

[Chorus:]

I've got no roots!

No roots!

I've got no roots!

But my home was never on the ground.

I've got no roots!

But my home was never on the ground.

I've got no roots!

I've got no roots!

I've got no roots!

But my home was never on the ground.

I've got no roots!

But my home was never on the ground.

I've got no roots!

I've got no roots!

No!
