Lisa Loeb Stay (Original) Lyrics

You say I only hear what I want to.
You say I talk so all the time so.
And I thought what I felt was simple,
And I thought that I dont belong,
And now that I am leaving,
Now I know that I did something wrong cause I mised you.
Yeah yeah, I missed you.
And you say I only hear what I want to:
I dont listen hard,
Dont pay attention to the distance that youre running
To anyone, anywhere,
I dont understand if you really care,
Im only hearing negative: no, no, no.
So I turned the radio on, I turned the radio up,
And this woman was singing my song:
Lovers in love, and the others run away,
Lover is crying cause the other wont stay.
Some of us hover when we weep for the other who was
Dying since the day they were born.
Well, well, this is not that;
I think that Im throwing, but Im thrown.
And I thought Id live forever, but now Im not so sure.
You try to tell me that Im clever,
But that wont take me anyhow, or anywhere with you.
You said that I was naive,
And I thought that I was strong.
I thought, hey, I can leave, I can leave.
Oh, but now I know that I was wrong, cause I missed you.
Yeah, I miss you.
You said, i caught you cause I want you and one day Ill let you go.
you try to give away a keeper, or keep me cause you know youre just scared to lose.
And you say, stay.
And you say I only hear what I want to.
