Stay陪我走過16個年頭


Stay by Lisa Loeb當年這首冠軍曲在MTV台出現的時候,讓我看得眼睛都離不開電視

原因有三個:
1.當然是歌很好聽 
2.是MV是一鏡倒底的拍攝方式(以前我哪裡會懂)
3.Lisa Loeb是少見主打帶眼鏡的才華女歌手
當年我才14歲,正值青春年華但我卻天天窩在家看MTV頻道,
這簡直不是少女該做的事情,少女不是應該去追偶像跟討論喜歡的男生嗎?
不,少女每個星期都在等歌曲排行榜
距離現在已經16年前了,這首歌依舊好聽,歌詞依舊令人深刻
而我已經長大成30歲了
年歲越大越能體會歌詞的意境給我的感觸
戀愛經驗多了,深深會覺得這首歌有點像吵架的時候女生的點點牢騷
但還是如此的到位。



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, 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.

so I turned the radio on, I turned the radio up,
and this woman was singing my song:
the lover's in love, and the other's run away,
the 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, 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."
but now I know that I was wrong, 'cause I missed 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 so scared to lose.
and you say, "stay."

you say I only hear what I want to.
