You Say Lyrics & Chords By 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
'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

Lovers in love, and the others 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
