Emma! A Pop Musical - Stay Lyrics


"Stay" as made famous by Lisa Loeb.

EMMA:
You say I only hear what I want to
You say I talk so all the time
So?

FRANKIE:
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—

EMMA:
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

EMMA:
Anywhere

ENSEMBLE:
Don’t

JEFF:
I don’t understand
If you really care.
I’m only hearing negative

EMMA, FRANKIE, JEFF & ENSEMBLE:
No, no, so I

EMMA, FRANKIE & ENSEMBLE:
I turned the radio on radio on

JEFF:
And this woman was singing my the song

EMMA & ENSEMBLE:
The lover’s in love

FRANKIE:
And the other ran away

EMMA & ENSEMBLES:
The lover is crying

FRANKIE & JEFF:
’Cause the other won’t stay

EMMA, FRANKIE & JEFF:
Some of us hover
While we’re weepin’
For the other
Who was dying since
The day they were born

EMMA: (spoken)
Well

EMMA, FRANKIE & JEFF:
Well

EMMA:
This is not that I

EMMA & ENSEMBLE:
Think that I’m throwing
But I’m

EMMA, FRANKIE, JEFF & ENSEMBLES:
Thrown

EMMA:
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

EMMA & ENSEMBLES:
You said that I was naïve

EMMA:
And I thought that I was strong
Oh

FRANKIE:
I thought hey, I can leave, I can leave
But now I know that I was wrong

JEFF:
’Cause I missed you

FRANKIE:
Missed you

EMMA:
Missed you.

EMMA & FRANKIE:
I missed you

FRANKIE:
You said my life was prob’ly perfect
But my life is just a show

JEFF:
You really make me want to tell you
What I feel and what I know
But I’m so
Scared to lose

EMMA:
And you say, “stay”

ENSEMBLES: (spoken)
Stay

EMMA:
You say I only hear what i want to
