Grammar:

• You sheltered me from harm

  ➔ 过去式

  ➔ 句子使用过去式来描述过去完成的动作：你“保护”了我。

• The finest years I ever knew

  ➔ 关系从句（省略）

  ➔ 这个句子包含一个简化的关系从句。完整的从句应该是“The finest years that I ever knew”。关系代词“that”被省略了，这很常见。

• Is all the years I had with you

  ➔ 现在时系动词与过去时的从句

  ➔ “is”将主语“The finest years”与从句“all the years I had with you”联系起来。“Is”是现在时，“had”是过去时。这强调了他所谈论的时间段已经完成。

• And I would give anything, I own

  ➔ 条件句 (假设情况)

  ➔ 这使用了条件句“would + 动词”来表达一种假设情况。这意味着实际上不可能或不太可能给出他所拥有的一切。

• Just to have you back again

  ➔ 不定式的目的状语

  ➔ “To have”是一个不定式，用于表达先前行为的目的（给出他所拥有的一切）。他会给出一切，以便“让你回来”。

• Is there someone you know That won't let you go

  ➔ 带有'that'的关系从句

  ➔ “that”引导一个限制性关系从句，用于定义“someone”。它明确了说话者所指的“某人”：那个不会让你走的人。

• And takin' it all for granted?

  ➔ 省略与现在分词

  ➔ 有一个隐含的主语和助动词（例如，“are you”），它们被省略了（省略号）。“Takin'”是现在分词，表示正在进行的动作。完整的问题可能是“Are you taking it all for granted？”。
