Paroles:

[English]

- Like, I said, this is a tune that Carole wrote

and I recorded it on my most recent album

'cause I really like it.

And since a lot of other people seem to like it too,

they pulled it for a single, for whatever that's worth.

Let's see.

Grammaire:

  • When you're down and troubled

    ➔ Proposition subordonnée circonstancielle de temps avec "When"

    ➔ Cette ligne utilise "when" pour introduire une condition. "When you're down and troubled" met en place une situation où les conseils suivants s'appliquent.

  • And you need some love and care

    ➔ Utilisation de "some" avec des noms indénombrables.

    "Love" et "care" sont des noms indénombrables en anglais, donc nous utilisons "some" pour indiquer une quantité non spécifiée.

  • Close your eyes and think of me

    ➔ Phrases impératives reliées par "and".

    ➔ Deux instructions sont données directement : "Close your eyes" et "think of me". Le mot "and" les relie, impliquant qu'ils doivent être effectués en séquence.

  • And soon I will be there

    ➔ Futur simple avec "will".

    "Will be" exprime une action ou un état futur. Cela indique une promesse ou une prédiction.

  • You just call out my name

    ➔ Impératif avec "just" pour insister.

    "Just" est utilisé ici pour adoucir la commande tout en la rendant claire et directe. Cela implique la simplicité - tout ce que vous avez à faire est d'appeler.

  • And you know wherever I am

    ➔ Proposition nominale introduite par "wherever".

    "Wherever I am" agit comme l'objet du verbe "know". "Wherever" signifie "peu importe où".

  • I'll come runnin' to see you again

    ➔ Futur avec "I'll" (I will) et participe présent "runnin'" comme adjectif. Prononciation informelle de running.

    "I'll come runnin'" décrit la façon de venir. "Runnin'" est un raccourci familier de "running" agissant comme un adjectif modifiant le verbe "come".

  • All you've got to do is call

    ➔ Structure "All you've got to do is" (pour exprimer que quelque chose est facile)

    ➔ Cette structure souligne la simplicité et la facilité de l'action. Cela signifie que la seule chose nécessaire est d'appeler.

  • Tell me, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend

    ➔ Tag question avec "ain't" (contraction informelle de "isn't") et "it" comme sujet factice.

    "Ain't it good" est une façon informelle de dire "Isn't it good". "It" est un sujet factice ici, faisant référence au sentiment général d'avoir un ami. La tag question invite à l'accord de l'auditeur.
