Stereo Hearts
Letra:
[English]
My heart's a stereo
It beats for you, so listen close
Hear my thoughts in every no-ote
Make me your radio
And turn me up when you feel low (turn it up a little bit)
This melody was meant for you (right there)
Just sing along to my stereo (Gym Class Hero, baby)
If I was just another dusty record on the shelf
Would you blow me off and play me like everybody else?
If I asked you to scratch my back, could you manage that?
Like it yikky yeah, check it Travie, I can handle that
Furthermore, I apologize for any skipping tracks
It's just the last girl that played me left a couple cracks
I used to, used to, used to, used to, now I'm over that
'Cause holding grudges over love is ancient artifacts
If I could only find a note to make you understand
I'd sing it softly in your ear and grab you by the hand
Just keep it stuck inside your head, like your favorite tune
And know my hearts a stereo that only plays for you
My heart's a stereo
It beats for you, so listen close
Hear my thoughts in every no-ote
Make me your radio
And turn me up when you feel low
This melody was meant for you
Just sing along to my stereo
(Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh) to my stereo
(Oh, oh-oh, oh) just sing along to my stereo
Let's go!
If I was an old-school, fifty-pound boombox (remember them?)
Would you hold me on your shoulder, wherever you walk?
Would you turn my volume up in front of the cops?
And crank it higher every time they told you to stop
And all I ask is that you don't get mad at me
When you have to purchase mad D batteries
Appreciate every mixtape your friends make
You never know, we come and go like on the interstate (never know)
I think I finally found a note to make you understand
If you can hit it, sing along and take me by the hand
Just keep me stuck inside your head, like your favorite tune
You know my heart's a stereo that only plays for you
My heart's a stereo
It beats for you, so listen close (listen)
Hear my thoughts in every no-ote
Make me your radio (come on)
And turn me up when you feel low (turn it up)
This melody was meant for you
Just sing along to my stereo (sing along like)
(Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh) to my stereo
(Oh, oh-oh, oh) just sing along to my stereo
I only pray you'll never leave me behind (never leave me)
Because good music can be so hard to find (so hard to find)
I take your hand, hold it closer to mine (yeah)
Thought love was dead, but now you're changing my mind
My heart's a stereo
It beats for you, so listen close
Hear my thoughts in every no-ote
Make me your radio
And turn me up when you feel low
This melody was meant for you
Just sing along to my stereo
(Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh) to my stereo (it's your boy, Travie)
(Oh, oh-oh, oh) just sing along to my stereo (yeah)

Gramática:
-
If I was just another dusty record on the shelf
➔ Segundo condicional
➔ Usa "Se + pretérito imperfeito do subjuntivo, condicional simples". A oração "se" descreve uma situação irreal ou hipotética. Neste caso, o falante não é um disco empoeirado.
-
Would you blow me off and play me like everybody else?
➔ Segundo condicional (forma interrogativa)
➔ Uma pergunta usando a estrutura do segundo condicional. "Would" é colocado no início para formar a pergunta.
-
If I asked you to scratch my back, could you manage that?
➔ Segundo condicional (Pergunta com 'could')
➔ Este é outro exemplo do segundo condicional. O uso de "could" sugere possibilidade ou habilidade em vez de um resultado definitivo. A oração 'if' expressa uma situação hipotética no passado, e 'could' se refere à capacidade de realizar essa ação.
-
I used to, used to, used to, used to, now I'm over that
➔ "Costumava"
➔ "Costumava" + infinitivo indica um hábito ou estado passado que já não é verdadeiro. O falante enfatiza que este hábito ou estado ocorreu repetidamente, e então diz que está "over that", o que implica que superou esse estado.
-
Cause holding grudges over love is ancient artifacts
➔ Concordância sujeito-verbo
➔ "Holding grudges over love" é o sujeito, uma frase gerúndio que atua como um substantivo singular. Portanto, o verbo é "is", uma forma singular.
-
If I was an old-school, fifty-pound boombox (remember them?)
➔ Segundo condicional com interjeição
➔ Continua o uso do segundo condicional. "(remember them?)" é uma interjeição - uma palavra ou frase inserida como um aparte ou interrupção.
-
Would you hold me on your shoulder, wherever you walk?
➔ Segundo condicional com cláusula "wherever"
➔ A frase continua com o segundo condicional. "Wherever you walk" é uma oração adverbial de lugar, indicando que a ação ocorreria independentemente da localização.
-
And all I ask is that you don't get mad at me
➔ Oração substantiva após 'ask'
➔ A frase "that you don't get mad at me" é uma oração substantiva que atua como o objeto do verbo "ask". A palavra "that" introduz a oração substantiva.
