Wye Oak – doubt

  Lyric Correction:according to Wye Oak:
  
  if you should doubt my heart, remember this: i could lie to you if i believed it was right to do. if you should think instead i would forget all the lives i said were not meant for me, and meant for you. that would be the test. sadly i could not forgive only that. to doubt the only way that what was true before, is true today. what i have learned of you does not assure you bow before my will. but i believed it then, believe it still. oh i believe it then, believe it still.

  Lyric Correction:it's gotta be "all the LIES i said" not "lives"
  
  and probably the last line is "believed IT still"

    it does really just make sense that way, so i'm going to change it. (BUT, does it not sound like she's saying LIVES? there's a V sound going on there, wouldn't you agree?)
    
    as for the last line, i'm not positive... but i like it better the way i heard it originally, so i "say what the hell, i'm gonna keep it." i'm sure jenn wouldn't object :)

    Such a quietly powerful song...
    I hear it as "all the lives i said / were not meant for me / and meant for you"
