Key Grammar Structures

• The world moves on without us

  ➔ Present Simple Tense (general truth/habit)

  ➔ Uses the Present Simple to express a general truth about how the world continues regardless of personal circumstances. "moves on" indicates the action the world is doing.

• While my heart is standing still

  ➔ Present Continuous Tense (temporary state)

  ➔ Uses the Present Continuous "is standing" to describe the singer's heart is metaphorically frozen in time at the present moment.

• Then why do memories still play like a silent film?

  ➔ Auxiliary verb 'do' in questions; Adverb 'still'

  ➔ The auxiliary verb "do" is used to form the question. The adverb "still" emphasizes that the memories continue to play even now. 'play like a silent film' is simile.

• You're still the one that moves me

  ➔ Relative clause ('that moves me'); Superlative (implied)

  ➔ "that moves me" is a relative clause defining "the one". It also implies superlative meaning: you're the *only* one who moves me like this. The adjective `still` also has an important role.

• That fills my heart to say the words that I did yesterday

  ➔ Relative clause 'that I did yesterday'; 'to say' - infinitive of purpose

  ➔ "that I did yesterday" modifies "the words". "To say" shows the purpose of the feeling in the singer's heart: to express those same words.

• I still feel that way

  ➔ Adverb 'still'

  ➔ The adverb "still" indicates that the feeling has continued from the past until the present.

• And I wish you felt the same way

  ➔ Past Simple in 'wish' clauses (unreal past)

  ➔ Uses the past simple "felt" in a "wish" clause to express a desire for a situation that is different from reality. It's a hypothetical, unreal situation.

• Don't say it's too late

  ➔ Imperative (negative)

  ➔ "Don't say" is a negative imperative, directly asking or commanding someone *not* to do something.
