Grammar:
-
Je voudrais oublier le temps
➔ Conditional Mood: *Je voudrais* + infinitive
➔ Expresses a wish or desire. *Je voudrais* is the conditional form of *vouloir*, meaning 'I would like'. It's followed by the infinitive *oublier* (to forget).
-
Où est ma vie, où est ma place
➔ Interrogative sentences with inversion: *Où est* + subject?
➔ Expresses questions about location or state. *Où est* means 'Where is'. The subject (*ma vie*, *ma place*) comes after the verb *est* (is) in an interrogative structure.
-
Penser à tout ce que j'ai vu
➔ Relative pronoun *ce que*: refers to a general idea.
➔ *Ce que* introduces a relative clause. It translates roughly to 'what' or 'that which' and combines the antecedent and the relative pronoun into one word.
-
Qu'il n'y a pas de rêve interdit
➔ Negative existential construction: *Il n'y a pas de* + noun
➔ Expresses that something does not exist. *Il n'y a pas de* means 'There is no'. *interdit* modifies *rêve*.
-
Où je vous vois, qui me rassure
➔ Relative Pronoun *qui*: Referring to the immediately preceding noun (*décor*)
➔ The pronoun *qui* (who, which) introduces a relative clause and acts as the subject of the verb *rassure*. In this sentence, *qui* refers back to *décor*.
-
Toujours chercher l'inaccessible
➔ Adverb *Toujours* preceding verb: emphasizing continuous action
➔ The word *toujours* (always) emphasizes the continuous nature of the action *chercher* (to seek, to look for). Placing it before the verb gives more prominence to the idea of constant striving.
