[English]

I like your eyes you look away when you pretend not to care

I like the dimples on the corners of the smile that you wear

I like you more, the world may know but don't be scared

Coz I'm falling deeper, baby be prepared

I like your shirt, I like your fingers, love the way that you smell

to be your favorite jacket, just so I could always be near

I loved you for so long, sometimes it's hard to bear

But after all this time, I hope you wait and see

Love you every minute, every second

Love you everywhere and any moment

Always and forever I know I can't quit you, coz

baby you're the one, I don't know how

I'll love you 'til the last of snow disappears

Love you 'til a rainy day becomes clear

Never knew a love like this, now I can't let go

I'm in love with you, and now you know

I like the way you try so hard when you play ball with your friends,

I like the way you hit the notes, in every song you're shining

I love the little things, like when you're unaware

I catch you steal a glance and smile so perfectly

Though sometimes when life brings me down

You're the cure my love

In a bad rainy day

You take all the worries away

I'm in love with you

and now you know

Key Grammar Structures

• I like your eyes you look away when you pretend not to care

  ➔ Zero conditional (present simple in both clauses)

  ➔ "you look" and "you pretend" are in the present simple to show a habitual action.

• Coz I'm falling deeper, baby be prepared

  ➔ Present continuous + imperative

  ➔ "I'm **falling**" uses the present continuous to describe an ongoing feeling, while "**be** prepared" is an imperative giving a direct instruction.

• I loved you for so long, sometimes it's hard to bear

  ➔ Past simple + duration phrase "for + time period"

  ➔ "I **loved** you **for** so long" uses the past simple to describe a completed period, with "for" indicating the length of time.

• I'll love you 'til the last of snow disappears

  ➔ Future simple with "until" + present simple in the time clause

  ➔ "I'll **love** you **'til** the last of snow **disappears**" – the main clause uses future simple ("will"), while the subordinate clause after "'til" (until) uses present simple because it refers to a future point.

• Love you 'til a rainy day becomes clear

  ➔ Present simple in a clause after "until" (future reference)

  ➔ "Love you **'til** a rainy day **becomes** clear" – the verb "becomes" stays in present simple because after "'til" we normally use present tense to talk about a future moment.

• I like the way you try so hard when you play ball with your friends

  ➔ "the way + subject + verb" for describing manner

  ➔ "the **way** you **try**" and "you **play** ball" use the pattern *the way + subject + verb* to talk about **how** something is done.

• I like the way you hit the notes, in every song you're shining

  ➔ Present continuous for ongoing state "you're shining"

  ➔ "you **'re shining**" uses the present continuous to emphasise that the shining is happening **right now** and is ongoing.

• Though sometimes when life brings me down, you're the cure my love
