    Hello bugmenot2,

    I listened to the song, this is what I hear.


    Sam Obernik - I Don't Love You


    Rewind and replay
    The sound of space
    We are erased
    Just woke up in anew
    You always said jump and I fell,
    fell for you
    And I hurt myself
    and now you
    My heart don’t skip a beat
    Honey the earth don’t move
    I’m trying to tell ya how I’ve fallen out of love with you
    It hurts yeah, but I don’t feel you

    oh ooh oh
    There ain’t no easy way
    These things are hard to do
    so I shot a video and brought it up on youtube
    to show how much I don’t love you
    I don’t love you ou ou ou
    Fresh off
    vigil on the wall
    Refresh and recall
    It’s coming clear as day to me
    no coming back to me
    word
    Now what you got a say
    yeah now point the blame away
    yeah my ears don’t miss a dirty
    cause I listen carefully
    wrong
    It don’t make a right
    right
    A fist don’t make a fight
    right
    don’t need no hand of destiny
    by getting the best of me
    fall
    like I did at your feet
    that don’t make me weak
    ding ding do the extra round with me
    I hit the ground running free

    Restart, replace
    The signs of you
    You are too late
    I woke up anew
    You always said jump, jump and I fell, fell
    far from you
    And I lost myself
    and now you
    My heart don’t skip a beat
    Honey the earth don’t move
    I’m trying to tell ya how I’ve fallen out of love with you

    Hi to all,
    thank you Macbard, I was also (and I am still) interested a lot in proofing this lyric.

    My ability to understand spoken English is bad, so I just want to point out difficult verses for me:

    As for 'Just woke up in anew' and 'I woke up anew' - the former phrase is totally unfamiliar to me.
    The first word in 'You are too late' sounds to me as 'We'.
    The first word in 'Fresh off' sounds to me as 'Race'.
    Should not 'Now what you got a say'(unfamiliar too) be 'Now what should I say'?
    In 'And I lost myself' I do not hear the 'And' if any.

    I would be glad if other members give a hand here.
    Regards

    "Just woke up and I knew"

    "We are too late"

    "Face off"

    "Now what you gotta say"

    "I lost myself"

    Thank you Mixalopoulos.

    Needless to say, but anyway: I am obsessed with this song.

    How embarrassing: to hear 'what should I' instead of 'what you gotta' - my Cranial-Audio-Recognition-System is so deranged.

    I recall some Brazilian MM artists pronouncing ‘what you’ as ‘whaTCH you’, as far as I know it is not considered as an error, but here is the cause of my confusion because of TCH SCH likeness.
    According to my favorite dictionary ‘Random House Webster’: what|(hwut, hwot, wut, wot; unstressed hw{x}t, w{x}t), pron.
    Back to the lyric: Where is this SCH sound coming from? Or she just uses some ‘hard’ variant.

    In my defense: I am terrified of all languages with no clear/distinct pronunciation of each letter.
    This "requirement" makes the flow hard (and harsh in some cases) but complies with the (lost in English, French) principle to write what you hear (and to read what is written) without need of spelling out i.e. transcriptions.
    Of course for (educated) native hearers/speakers/writers it is not such a nightmare, and I guess they don't feel the fuss.
    In my view the multitude of problems (in regards of many different readings of one word) comes exactly from the above-mentioned "lost principle".

    I can't help it: is there any chance only the first 'and now you' to be 'and now of you'?
    I mean as a continuation of 'And I hurt myself', a shortened variant of:
    And I hurt myself
    and now [was hurt] of you
    Don't you think that such a variant is possible?

    Caramba, and to get things worse, everytime I hear only the first 'and now you' as:
    and now who
    Only after intensive concentration I hear the 'you' preceded by a long 'W'.

    Not to differentiate 'now you' & 'now of you' & 'now who'... Obviously I have no calibration whatsoever.

    Revision 2 follows:

    Maybe the lyric above is 100% error-free, anyone to disagree?!
    Revision 2 is not complete – some missing (hard-to-distinguish) phrases after the dots, grmbl.

    Hi, I can understand the difficulties non-native English speakers have with spoken or sung words, as there are many different dialects and accents.

    For example: When you hear the two following lines, an "H" is stressed before the "I" making it sound like, "Hi don't love you" Some English speakers pronounce it this way, and it is incorrect.

    "To show how much I don’t love you,
    I don’t love you"

    Also in this line the words are pronounced incorrectly.

    "I’m trying to tell ya how I’ve fallen out of love with you" She sings it like this: "I'm trying to tell ya how I've fallen out of love wid ju"

    This is a slang way of talking, and of course it finds it's way into song.

    On a final note, I have listened to this line over and over "I hit the ground running free" and I cannot hear another word at the end of it, apart from an echo of "free" which repeats twice.

    Glad to have helped.

    Thanks a lot for the thorough answer Mixalopoulos.

    The wish to have this lyric free of errors overpowered me, sometimes I am too emotional.
    As for the "background" words in my version (Club Mix) 7:08 in length after the two echos in position 4:40 to 4:48 and 5:17 to 5:26 I hear something like "go find it" preceded by two more words?!

    You have helped me for sure.
    I owe you a drink.
