[English]

Can I call you baby?

Can you be my friend?

Can you be my lover up until the very end?

Let me show you love, oh, I don't pretend

Stick by my side even when the world is givin' in, yeah

Oh, oh, oh, don't

Don't you worry

I'll be there, whenever you want me

I need somebody who can love me at my worst

No, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth

'Cause it's only you, nobody new, I put you first

And for you, girl, I swear I'll do the worst

...

...

If you stay forever, let me hold your hand

I can fill those places in your heart no else can

Let me show you love, oh, I don't pretend, yeah

I'll be right here, baby, you know I'll sink or swim

Oh, oh, oh, don't

Don't you worry

I'll be there, whenever you want me

I need somebody who can love me at my worst

No, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth, yeah

'Cause it's only you, nobody new, I put you first (put you first)

And for you, girl, I swear I'll do the worst

...

I need somebody who can love me at my worst

No, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth

'Cause it's only you, nobody new, I put you first

And for you, girl, I swear I'll do the worst

...

Key Grammar Structures

• Can I call you baby? Can you be my friend?

  ➔ Modal verbs (Can) for requests and asking for permission.

  ➔ The use of "Can" to politely inquire about the possibility of calling someone 'baby' and being their friend. It expresses a request rather than a statement of fact.

• Can you be my lover up until the very end?

  ➔ Prepositional phrase "up until" indicating a duration of time.

  ➔ "Up until" specifies the period for which the speaker wants the relationship to last - to the "very end".

• I'll be there, whenever you want me

  ➔ Adverbial clause of time introduced by "whenever".

  ➔ "Whenever you want me" acts as an adverb of time, specifying the condition under which the speaker will be there. The speaker implies availability at any time the other person desires.

• I need somebody who can love me at my worst

  ➔ Relative clause "who can love me at my worst" modifying "somebody".

  ➔ The relative clause clarifies what kind of "somebody" the speaker needs, specifically someone capable of loving them when they are at their least appealing.

• No, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth

  ➔ Use of "but" to contrast two potentially conflicting ideas.

  ➔ The speaker acknowledges their imperfection ("I'm not perfect") but expresses a desire for the other person to recognize their inherent value ("I hope you see my worth"). "But" creates a contrast, implying that imperfection doesn't negate worth.

• 'Cause it's only you, nobody new, I put you first

  ➔ Emphasis through repetition and structure ("nobody new").

  ➔ The phrase "nobody new" reinforces that only one person matters. The simple structure highlights this exclusivity and dedication. It stresses that no one else compares to the person being addressed.

• And for you, girl, I swear I'll do the worst

  ➔ Use of superlative "worst" to express a willingness to do anything, even negative things, for the other person.

  ➔ Here, 'worst' is used metaphorically to mean 'anything', even things the speaker might not normally do. It emphasizes the depth of their devotion and willingness to sacrifice for the other person.
