Grammar:

• In your eyes, I'm alive

  ➔ Simple Present tense of 'to be' (am). Used to describe a current state of being.

  ➔ The sentence expresses the feeling of being energized and full of life because of the subject's presence. "I'm alive" indicates a strong sense of being invigorated.

• Every tear, every fear, gone with the thought of you

  ➔ Past participle used as an adjective ("gone"). Prepositional phrase ("with the thought of you") indicating the cause of the disappearance.

  ➔ The sentence illustrates how the presence of the subject's thoughts eradicates negative emotions. "Gone with the thought of you" emphasizes the power of the subject's memory to dispel fear and sadness.

• Changing what I thought I knew

  ➔ Gerund phrase ("Changing what I thought I knew") acting as the subject of an implied verb. Indirect speech ('what I thought').

  ➔ This implies a paradigm shift. The love interest is causing the speaker to re-evaluate their previous understanding of the world. The phrase highlights the transformative power of love.

• I'll be yours for a thousand lives

  ➔ Future simple tense with 'will' ('I'll be'). Hyperbole (a thousand lives) for emphasis.

  ➔ This emphasizes the speaker's absolute devotion, promising love and loyalty beyond a single lifetime. "A thousand lives" creates a dramatic and romantic effect.

• I'm free as a bird when I'm flying in your cage

  ➔ Simile (as free as a bird). Paradoxical statement (freedom within a cage). Present continuous tense ("I'm flying").

  ➔ This is a powerful metaphor. The speaker feels unrestricted and liberated within the confines of the relationship. The 'cage' symbolizes both restriction and protection, implying a loving and safe environment.

• Been waiting for a lifetime for ya

  ➔ Present perfect continuous tense ("been waiting"). 'For' indicating duration. Informal contraction 'ya' for 'you'.

  ➔ This conveys a long period of anticipation. The speaker emphasizes the prolonged wait, indicating the intensity of their feelings. The use of 'ya' adds an informal, intimate tone.

• Wasn't looking for love till I found you

  ➔ Past continuous negative form ("wasn't looking"). 'Till' meaning 'until'. Past simple tense ('found').

  ➔ This highlights the unexpected nature of the love. The speaker wasn't actively seeking a relationship, implying that this love was a surprise. It amplifies the impact and significance of the relationship.
