Wood made her film debut in 1998's "Digging To China", but did not garner much attention in the format until her Golden Globe-nominated performance in 2003's "thirteen." She has since starred in such diverse motion pictures as "Pretty Persuasion" (2005), "The Upside of Anger" (2005) and "Down in the Valley" (2006), as well as several others.
Wood has been described by The Guardian newspaper as being "wise beyond her years" and as "one of the best actresses of her generation".
In 2007 she starred as Lucy in the film "Across the Universe," which was the first movie to employ the use of her impressive singing voice. She debuted it on "Once and Again," where she sang "Red Red Robin" (at a wedding) and a few older folk songs (for a play her character starred in). In 2002, she also recorded two songs for the holiday compilation "School's Out! Christmas": "Christmas Isn't Christmas Without You" and a cover of the old chestnut "Silver and Gold."
Her solo contributions to the "Across the Universe" soundtrack are: "Hold Me Tight", "It Won't Be Long", "If I Fell", and "Blackbird".
Id Have You Anytime
Evan Rachel Wood Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let me into your heart
Let me know you, let me show you
Let me roll it to you
All I have is yours
All you see is mine
And I'm glad to hold you in my arms
Let me say it, let me play it
Let me lay it on you
Let me know you, let me show you
Let me grow upon you
All I have is yours
All you see is mine
And I'm glad to hold you in my arms
I'd have you anytime
Let me in here, I know I've been here
Let me into your heart
The lyrics to Evan Rachel Wood's song "I'd Have You Anytime" speak of a desire for connection and intimacy with another person. The singer pleads with the object of their affection to let them into their heart, to let them know and show them who they really are. The repeated phrase "All I have is yours, all you see is mine" emphasizes a deep sense of mutual understanding and trust between the two individuals.
The line "Let me roll it to you" is particularly evocative, as it can be interpreted in different ways. On one level, it could be a reference to using drugs or rolling a joint, suggesting a desire to share a mind-altering experience with someone else. On a deeper level, it could represent a desire to share all of oneself with the other person, to "roll" everything that makes them who they are to share it fully in a relationship.
Overall, the song captures a sense of longing and vulnerability, as the singer begs for acceptance and understanding from the person they care about.
