HI, I was wondering if someone could help me with a song I think was out in 96 or 97. It's a woman singing and I know most of the lyrics...
' "You say, I only hear what I want to, I don't listen hard, I don't pay attention to the distance that your running from anyhow, anywhere, I don't understand that you really care, I'm only here a negative..no no no no....so I, I turn the radio on I turn the radio up and this woman was singing my song. Lovers in love and the other runs away, lovers is crying cause the other won't stay....." That's all I can recall...I'm been lookin for this song forever...I appreciate any help.  8)

"Stay (I Missed You)" by Lisa Loeb. And it came out ten years ago.

Hello Beth, here is the lyric of the song what you were looking for, i love this song too.

Regards, Rocio

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

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
Know, know, know that

So I, I turned the radio on, I turned the radio up (turn the radio)
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
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, "You caught me 'cause you 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."

You say I only hear what I want to

;D
