Lisa Loeb & Nine Stories - Stay (I Missed You)



Hello people (if there is anybody who still bothers to read this blog of mine). It has been quite a while since I last updated or posted anything on the blog. Really busy with stuff & it gets to my head sometimes. Got to learn how to chill & let people help me with my work instead of trying to do everything by myself. Time is a luxury I cannot afford now, but as some of my partners said, I must learn to take time off to smell the roses.

Anyway, here is a blast from the past. One of my all time favourite songs, & after so many years, I still remember the lyrics. If you do not know them, here they are. For those videos which are no longer available on YouTube, I must apologise. I will find the time to go through each every one of them & find a working replacement.

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 missed you.

You said you caught me cause u want me and one day you'll let me 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.

Ja neh!!!
