I'd love it if someone could do the vocals to this acoustic solo version of Lisa Loeb's "Stay"

It has been recorded in the orginal key.

I've done this song live with a few different female vocalists over the years but would love to have a recorded version. The guitar sounds a bit lonely by itself but the right voice just makes it complete.

I do have a girl who performs in a duo at the venue i manage that has an unbelievable voice. I am trying to get her to do the vox but they only perform here once a month at the moment and getting the time (and a quiet room) for her to do the vocals is proving difficult. If i can get it done i'll post it straight away.

In the meantime....i'd love to hear anyone who can do it justice.

I've attached the MP3 of the song and here's the lyrics.
(should have attached this from the word go)

"Stay"

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 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.



Can't wait to hear your rendition wiley.
