Lisa Loeb - Stay

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 don't belong
And now that I am leaving
Now I know that I did something wrong
'Cause I missed you
Yeah yeah, I missed you

And you say I only hear what I want to
I don't listen hard
Don't pay attention to the distance
That you're running to anyone, anywhere
I don't understand if you really care
I'm only hearing negative... no, no, no

So I turned the radio on
I turned the radio up
And this woman was singing my song
Lover's in love, and the other's run away
Lover is crying 'cause the other won't 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 I'm throwing
But I'm thrown

And I thought I'd live forever
but now I'm not so sure
You try to tell me that I'm clever
But that won't 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 I'll let you go
You try to give away a keeper
Or keep me 'cause you know you're just scared to lose

And you say, "stay"
And you say I only hear what I want to
