Grammar:
-
I, I JUST WOKE UP FROM A DREAM
➔ Past Simple (Woke up)
➔ Describes a completed action in the past. "Woke up" indicates the action of waking up happened and finished before now.
-
WHERE YOU AND I HAD TO SAY GOODBYE
➔ Past Simple (Had to say)
➔ "Had to say" indicates a past obligation or necessity. It means there was no choice but to say goodbye.
-
WHEREVER YOU GO THAT'S WHERE I'LL FOLLOW
➔ Conditional sentence type 1 (Modified), Future Simple (I'll follow)
➔ This is a modified conditional sentence. "Wherever you go" acts as the 'if' clause. "I'll follow" is the main clause, indicating a future action that will happen if the condition is met. The use of "wherever" makes it a general condition.
-
NOBODY’S PROMISED TOMORROW
➔ Possessive ('s), Passive Voice (Implied)
➔ "Nobody's" is a contraction of "nobody is" or "nobody has." Here, it implies a passive construction like "Tomorrow is not promised to anybody."
-
SO IMMA LOVE YOU EVERY NIGHT LIKE IT'S THE LAST NIGHT
➔ Contraction ('Imma'), Conditional Mood (Implied)
➔ "Imma" is a colloquial contraction of "I'm going to." "Like it's the last night" implies a subjunctive mood; it's treated as if it were the last night, even though it isn't necessarily.
-
IF THE WORLD WAS ENDING I’D WANNA BE NEXT (TO YOU)
➔ Second Conditional (If + Past Simple, would + infinitive)
➔ This is a classic example of a second conditional. "If the world was ending" is the 'if' clause (hypothetical past), and "I'd wanna be next to you" is the main clause (hypothetical consequence).
-
LOST IN THE WORDS THAT WE SCREAM
➔ Past Participle as adjective ('Lost')
➔ Here, "lost" functions as an adjective, describing the state of being absorbed or overwhelmed within the words.
-
I DON'T EVEN WANNA DO THIS ANYMORE
➔ Negative Imperative (Don't)
➔ Although it's not directly commanding someone else, "I don't even wanna do this anymore" expresses a strong personal refusal or unwillingness to continue an action.
