[English]

The world is in my hands

I'm ready to go my way

Tomorrow is not today

So take the change

Singing oh-oh-oh

The sky is not the end

I'm ready to make a change

So give me one more dance

It's not too late

The world is in my hands

...

The sky is not the end

I'm ready to make a change

So give me one more dance

It's not too late

Just let it go, make it a night to remember

The simple beat of my heart, tells me it's now or never

'Cause it ain't over tonight 'til it's over

I will keep this dream alive 'til the end

Now the world is in my hands

The world is in my hands

I'm ready to go my way

Tomorrow is not today

So take the change

Singing oh-oh-oh

The sky is not the end

I'm ready to make a change

So give me one more dance

It's not too late

The world is in my hands

(If we all end in who we are)

(We write the sky, a shooting stars)

(We're just begun)

(We'll come in, we're on our way)

The world is in my hands

...

I will keep this dream alive

The sky is not the end

I'm ready to make a change

So give me one more dance

It's not too late

The world is in my hands

...

Key Grammar Structures

• The world is in my hands

  ➔ Present Simple (be verb + prepositional phrase)

  ➔ This sentence uses the present simple to express a state of being or a general truth. The phrase 'in my hands' indicates possession or control. The verb 'is' links the subject 'world' to the description 'in my hands'.

• Tomorrow is not today

  ➔ Present Simple (negative form)

  ➔ This sentence uses the present simple to state a fact – that tomorrow and today are different times. The 'not' creates a negative statement. It emphasizes living in the present.

• I'm ready to make a change

  ➔ Present Continuous (to be + adjective + infinitive)

  ➔ The present continuous here doesn't describe an action happening *now*, but rather a willingness or readiness to do something. 'Ready' functions as an adjective describing the subject 'I'. The 'to make' is an infinitive of purpose.

• Just let it go, make it a night to remember
