Lyrics for You Had Time
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? What did you decide?" You said you needed time when 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 when you had time You had time You had time You had time You had time
