[English]

In the dark of night

The stars light up the sky

We see them flying free

That's just like you and me

Everyone is lonely sometimes

But I would walk a thousand miles to see your eyes

You are not alone, we are family

Hold me, let's escape all this reality

You are my symphony

By your side, we are unity

You are my energy

My guiding light, we are unity

(We are, we are) We are unity

(We are, we are) We are unity

Although the rain might pour

A thunder starts to roar

The lightning wakes the wave

But through it, we are brave

Everyone is lonely sometimes

But I would walk a thousand miles to see your eyes (Yes I would)

You are not alone, we are family (Family)

Hold me, let's escape all this reality

You are my symphony

By your side, we are unity (We are unity)

You are my energy

My guiding light, we are unity

(We are, we are) We are unity

(We are, we are) We are unity

You are my symphony (We are)

By your side (We are, we are unity, unity)

You are my energy (We are)

My guiding light (We are), unity

We are unity

We are unity

Key Grammar Structures

• The stars light up the sky

  ➔ Simple Present

  ➔ The verb "light" is in the Simple Present to describe a general fact.

• We see them flying free

  ➔ Verb of perception + gerund (present participle)

  ➔ After the perception verb "see", the gerund "flying" shows the action being observed.

• But I would walk a thousand miles to see your eyes

  ➔ Conditional with "would" + infinitive (hypothetical future)

  ➔ "Would" expresses an unreal or imagined willingness; the infinitive "walk" shows the intended action.

• Hold me, let's escape all this reality

  ➔ Imperative + "let's" + base verb (suggestion)

  ➔ "Hold" is a direct command; "let's" (let us) invites the speaker and listener to "escape" together.

• Although the rain might pour

  ➔ "Although" + clause with modal "might" (possibility)

  ➔ "Although" introduces a concessive clause; "might" shows that the rain is only a possible event.

• A thunder starts to roar

  ➔ Verb "start" + infinitive (beginning an action)

  ➔ "Starts" is in the Simple Present; the infinitive "to roar" shows what the thunder begins to do.

• You are not alone, we are family

  ➔ Negative present simple + noun complement

  ➔ "Are" is the present form of "to be"; "not" makes it negative, and "alone" / "family" function as subject complements.

• By your side, we are unity

  ➔ Prepositional phrase of location + present simple

  ➔ "By your side" is a prepositional phrase indicating position; the clause "we are unity" uses Simple Present to state a fact.

• You are my symphony

  ➔ Possessive determiner + noun as subject complement

  ➔ "My" shows ownership; "symphony" functions as a subject complement describing "you".
