Bueno... Esta es una de mis canciones favoritas. La canta Ani DiFranco, una chica a la que probablemente no conozcáis, originaria de Buffalo, New York, y que en la foto sale tocando la guitarra. Su música combina el folk con diversas influencias extraídas del blues, jazz, punk, indie rock y alternative. DiFranco hace una música con la que es fácil identificarse. No sé inglés; pero creo entender que esta canción habla sobre una pareja que se está rompiendo... Habla, como bien dice el título sobre que necesitan tiempo y hay algunas frases preciosas como éstas: "Cómo puedo volver a casa sin nada que decir, vuelvo a casa con la cabeza vacía"; "La única persona que me ama realmente eres tú"; "Mis dedos y mi voz están doloridos"; pero su pareja siempre termina culpándole de esa situación. Conocí esta canción gracias a la BSO de una película. Aquí la tenéis:
"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
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 making 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.
