I'd never met you, but I wanted to invite you to the party 00:08

Paroles:

[English]

I'd never met you, but I wanted to invite you to the party

Then you walked in with those green eyes, never stolen by nobody

And they flicker to the future, for a moment, I could picture

Then you touch me and I come back, and we're talking on the staircase

'Bout your big dreams on the big screens

Out of Georgia, now you're lonely in this city

Lyin' with me, and you're scared it's movin' quickly

Oh, now you're crying, you're in pieces

'Cause the only love you've ever known is Jesus

I can feel it

Oh, I hate that I'm the reason

That you're in your head right now

While your world is spinning out

So slow it down, take a moment now

We're too young to drown deep in dirty waters

Full of hopeless doubt, let me pull you out

Let me hold you now, let me slow it down

Ain't it funny how it changes?

How the future rearranges

I get nervous, oh, I'm anxious

Maybe loving you is dangerous

I could lose you like the others

Only girl that's never left me is my mother

Oh, I love her

And I know you'll probably hate it

But I'm in my head right now

So slow it down, take a moment now

We're too young to drown deep in dirty waters

Full of hopeless doubt, let me pull you out

Let me hold you now, let me (slow it down)

Slow it down when you're on the ground

And you're crying, I'm trying (slow it down)

To slow it down when you're spinning 'round

In your head

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

I'll help you slow it down

Grammaire:

  • I'd never met you, but I wanted to invite you to the party

    ➔ Plus-que-parfait (I'd never met)

    ➔ Utilise le plus-que-parfait "I'd never met" pour indiquer une action terminée avant une autre action dans le passé (vouloir l'inviter).

  • Then you walked in with those green eyes, never stolen by nobody

    ➔ Voix passive (never stolen by nobody) et proposition subordonnée adjective

    "never stolen by nobody" est une double négation emphatique. Bien que grammaticalement incorrect, cela intensifie l'idée que personne n'a jamais possédé son regard. De plus, 'those green eyes' modifie 'you' pour ajouter une description.

  • And they flicker to the future, for a moment, I could picture

    ➔ Conditionnel (I could picture)

    "I could picture" utilise le conditionnel pour décrire une situation hypothétique ou imaginée dans le passé. Cela suggère une possibilité qui existait brièvement.

  • Lyin' with me, and you're scared it's movin' quickly

    ➔ Présent Continu (it's movin')

    "it's movin'" (it is moving) utilise le présent continu pour décrire une action qui se déroule actuellement ou en cours, soulignant la vitesse et la nature continue de la situation.

  • Cause the only love you've ever known is Jesus

    ➔ Passé Composé (you've ever known)

    ➔ Utilise le passé composé "you've ever known" pour décrire une expérience qui s'est produite à un moment donné de la vie de la personne jusqu'à présent.

  • While your world is spinning out

    ➔ Présent Continu (is spinning)

    ➔ Le présent continu "is spinning" met en évidence la nature continue et potentiellement chaotique de l'état actuel de la jeune fille. Cela montre que son monde ne se contente pas de changer, mais qu'il est activement en train de devenir incontrôlable.

  • We're too young to drown deep in dirty waters

    ➔ Groupe adjectival (too young to drown)

    "too young to drown" est un groupe adjectival modifiant "We". Il décrit l'état d'être trop jeune, suivi d'un infinitif de but. Ici, il souligne leur jeunesse comme une raison de ne pas faire face à des situations difficiles.

  • Only girl that's never left me is my mother

    ➔ Proposition Subordonnée Relative (that's never left me)

    "that's never left me" est une proposition subordonnée relative déterminative qui modifie "girl". Elle ajoute des informations essentielles pour identifier à quelle fille il est fait référence.
