Stay (I Missed You)

You say

I only hear what I want to

And 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 I missed you

And you say

I only hear what I want to

I don't listen hard

I 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, bad

So I, I turned the radio on,

Iturned the radio up

And this woman was singing my song

Lovers in love and the other's run away

Lover is crying 'cause the other won't stay

And 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

And 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 missed you

You said, "you caught me cause you want me

And one day I'll let you go"

You try to give away a keeper

Or keep me 'cause you know you're just so

Scared to lose

And you say,

"Stay"

You say

I only hear what I want to
