AND I'LL TELL YOU ALL ABOUT IT WHEN I SEE YOU AGAIN
➔ Future Simple with "will" and Time Clause with "when"
➔ "I'll tell" is the future simple, expressing a future intention. The "when" clause indicates when the action will occur; in time clauses "when", the present simple is used to refer to a future event, not "when I will see".

-
I KNOW WE LOVED TO HIT THE ROAD AND LAUGH
➔ Past Simple (loved) and "used to" equivalent (loved to)
