I hold you in my hands
A little animal
And only some dumb idiot
Would let you go
But if I'm one thing
Then that's the one thing
I should know
Can anybody find their home
Out of everyone
Can anybody find their home
I hold you in cupped hands
And shield you from a storm
Where only some dumb idiot
Would let you go
But if I'm one thing
Then that's the one thing
I should know
Can anybody find their home
Out of everyone
Can anybody find their home
Lost in the sun
Can anybody find their home
Come on, come on, come on
Can anybody find their home
Oh oh-oh-oh-oh
Can anybody find their home
Out of everyone
Can anybody find their home
Lost in the sun
Can anybody find their home
Come on, come on, come on
Can anybody find their home
Oooooh
Can anybody find their home
A little animal
And only some dumb idiot
Would let you go
But if I'm one thing
Then that's the one thing
I should know
Can anybody find their home
Out of everyone
Can anybody find their home
I hold you in cupped hands
And shield you from a storm
Where only some dumb idiot
Would let you go
But if I'm one thing
Then that's the one thing
I should know
Can anybody find their home
Out of everyone
Can anybody find their home
Lost in the sun
Can anybody find their home
Come on, come on, come on
Can anybody find their home
Oh oh-oh-oh-oh
Can anybody find their home
Out of everyone
Can anybody find their home
Lost in the sun
Can anybody find their home
Come on, come on, come on
Can anybody find their home
Oooooh
Can anybody find their home

"But if I'm one thing
Then that's the one thing
I should know"
Seems to me to not necessarily mean he's PLANNING to let her go, but that perhaps he's stupidly let people he loved go in the past, and he's afraid of the same thing happening again.
obviously its about being lost
"lost in the sun / can anybody find a home"
It says that it is still beautiful around him, even though he is lost and questioning if there is a place for anyone, not just himself. Whether you are listening to this song for the music, vocals, or lyrics it is beautiful.
"Out of everyone can anybody find their home" Here he seems to be asking"Does anyone realize that we need to take care of our home Earth?" It's quite a good song and it could be about love or anything really, but this is just one way you could look at it....
I think this song is about living things.
"I hold you in my hands, A little animal
And only some dumb idiot Would let you go
BUT if I'm one thing, Then that's the one THING"
This part I think they meant "But if I'm a living thing, than the animals have rights to live, too."
I don't know. See, this is what makes their songs so powerful, you can never know what they really meant when they were writing their songs. Honestly I think Keane is way better than Coldplay. Oh I just love them so much...
