You Had Time

A heartbreaking diddy. An oldie but goodie. Finally came across clear footage of this song, thanks to YouTube user,


You Had Time by Ani Difranco - Live at The House of Blues in Anaheim 4/2/11


You Had Time - Ani Difranco
how can i go home

with nothing to say

i know you're going to look at me that way

and say what did you do out there

and what did you decide

you said you needed time

and you had time



you are a china shop

and i am a bull

you are really good food

and i am full


i guess everything is timing

i guess everything's been said

so i am coming home with an empty head



you'll say did they love you or what

i'll say they love what i do

the only one who really loves me is you

and you'll say girl did you kick some butt

and i'll say i don't really remember

but my fingers are sore

and my voice is too



you'll say it's really good to see you

you'll say i missed you horribly

you'll say let me carry that

give that to me

and you will take the heavy stuff

and you will drive the car

and i'll look out the window and make jokes

about the way things are




how can i go home

with nothing to say

i know you're going to look at me that way

and say what did you do out there

and what did you decide

you said you needed time

and you had time
 
"You Had Time" can be found on Out of Range (1994)
