• I finally made up my mind

  ➔ Phrasal verb: made up

  ➔ The phrasal verb "made up" here means to reach a decision or to decide on something. "I finally made up my mind" indicates that the speaker has finally reached a decision.

• And I really want to make her mine

  ➔ Use of possessive pronoun "mine"

  ➔ "Mine" is a possessive pronoun that stands for "my". Here, it means the speaker wants the girl to be his, in a romantic or affectionate sense. It is not followed by a noun.

• The only place in town where I didn't search

  ➔ Relative Clause with omitted relative pronoun (that/which)

  ➔ The relative pronoun "that" or "which" can be omitted when it is the object of the relative clause. Here, it would be "The only place in town *that/which* I didn't search".

• Boy I've missed your kisses all the time but this is

  ➔ Present Perfect Simple (I've missed)

  ➔ The present perfect simple ("I've missed") expresses an action that started in the past and continues to the present or has a result in the present. Here, the feeling of missing the kisses started in the past and is still relevant now.

• Though you travelled so far boy I'm sorry your are

  ➔ Subordinating conjunction "though"

  ➔ "Though" introduces a clause that contrasts with the main clause. It expresses a concession or a contrast. It means even though.

• Wishing me back To the time when we were more than friends

  ➔ Participle clause of reason

  ➔ The phrase "Wishing me back..." functions as a participle clause that provides the reason for the action in the previous sentence (going home). It's like saying "Because I am wishing to be back to the time..."

• Places where hungry hearts have nothing to eat

  ➔ Relative Clause defining "Places"

  ➔ The clause "where hungry hearts have nothing to eat" is a relative clause defining what kind of "places" the speaker is referring to. "Where" is used because it is referring to a location.
