Woman I want to ask you Why you do that anyway

I thought things were fine just yesterday

Woman you've got to tell me what's going through your head

You know I can't spend one more night sleeping in this lonely bed

Now I lay here thinking about what you did

I know it was wrong baby

but I'm ready to forgive

Baby you got to tell me what's going through your head

You know i can't spend one more night sleeping in this lonely bed

Tell me baby What it's gonna be

You gonna come back home, child Lord, and stay with me

Or I've got to..

Get myself another woman instead

You know I can't spend one more night sleeping in this lonely bed

Grammaire:

  • Woman I want to ask you Why you do that anyway

    ➔ Ordre des mots interrogatif & Question indirecte (question imbriquée)

    ➔ L'expression "why you do that anyway" fonctionne comme l'objet du verbe "ask". L'ordre des mots passe de la forme de question directe ("Why do you do...") à une forme ressemblant à une déclaration dans la phrase plus large.

  • I thought things were fine just yesterday

    ➔ Passé simple (were)

    "were" indique un état d'être dans le passé. La phrase exprime la croyance de l'orateur à propos d'une situation passée.

  • Woman you've got to tell me what's going through your head

    ➔ Présent continu (is going) & Contraction (you've)

    "is going through your head" décrit un processus de pensée en cours. "you've" est une contraction de "you have".

  • You know I can't spend one more night sleeping in this lonely bed

    ➔ Verbe modal (can't)

    "can't" exprime une incapacité ou un manque de permission de faire quelque chose. Il indique le fort désir de l'orateur d'éviter la situation.

  • Now I lay here thinking about what you did

    ➔ Passé simple (did), Phrase prépositionnelle (about what)

    "did" fait référence à une action terminée dans le passé. "about what you did" est une phrase prépositionnelle agissant comme objet de "thinking".

  • I know it was wrong baby but I'm ready to forgive

    ➔ Passé simple (was), Conjonction (but), Infinitif de but (to forgive)

    "was" décrit un état passé. "but" oppose deux idées. "to forgive" exprime le but ou l'intention de l'orateur.

  • What it's gonna be

    ➔ Temps futur (gonna - going to)

    "gonna" est une contraction familière de "going to", utilisée pour exprimer une intention ou une prédiction future.

  • Or I've got to.. Get myself another woman instead

    ➔ Passé composé (I've got) et infinitif de but (to get)

    "I've got to" indique une nécessité ou une obligation; une forme plus forte de 'have to'. "To get" ici exprime le but, ce qui signifie que l'orateur doit prendre la mesure d'aller chercher une autre femme.
