Ani Difranco You Had Time lyrics

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
