"Stay"
Lisa Loeb

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
Coz I missed you, 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
Or 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 and turned the radio up
And this woman was singing my song
Lovers in love and the other's ran away
Lover's crying coz the other won't stay

Some of us hover when we weep
For the other who was dying  since
The day were born, 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,though
I thought, 'hey, I could live, I could live oh'
But now I know that I was wrong,
Coz I missed you,
Yeah, I miss you

You said, "I caught you coz I want you
And one day I'll let you go" you try to give away a keeper
And keep me coz you know you're just scared to lose
And you say, 'Stay'

You say, I only hear what I want to...


* I really like this song because for some reasons... ;(
