语法:
-
Tears we cried, a flood
➔ 省略(为诗意效果省略单词)
➔ 这句话省略了助动词 "have"。 它应该是 "Tears *we have* cried, a flood"。 这样做是为了强调情感影响,并创建一个更简洁、更诗意的表达。
-
Got all kinds of poison in / Of poison in my blood
➔ 重复以强调和情感影响;“got” 的口语用法
➔ 重复使用 “of poison in” 强调了被消极情绪吞噬的感觉。“Got” 以口语方式使用,意思是 “have”。
-
Trying to right a wrong
➔ 目的不定式
➔ “To right a wrong” 解释了他走到牛津街的目的。 它表明了他采取该行动的 *原因*。
-
But I can't believe she's gone
➔ 现在完成时
➔ “She's gone” 是 “She has gone” 的缩写形式,表示离开的行为发生在过去,并且与现在相关。 说话者仍然无法相信该事件的影响。
-
When you're still waiting for the snow to fall
➔ 现在进行时,表达正在进行的事情
➔ 使用 “are waiting” (you're waiting) 强调了等待的持续性; 它不仅仅是一个单一的时刻,而是一种持续的状态。 这突出了挥之不去的希望和未实现的期望。
-
Doesn't really feel like Christmas at all
➔ 带程度副词的否定助动词
➔ “Doesn't” 是否定助动词。“Really” 是一个程度副词,修饰 “feel”。 这种组合强调了圣诞气氛的缺乏。“At all” 强化了否定。
-
Maybe they'll bring her back to me
➔ 带有 “maybe” 的一般将来时(表达可能性)
➔ “They'll bring” 是一般将来时。 添加 “Maybe” 可以缓和语气,并表示一种可能性或希望,而不是确定性。
-
May all your troubles soon be gone
➔ 情态动词 “may” 表达愿望或希望
➔ 情态动词 “may” 在这里用于表达对听众的善意祝愿。 它表示希望听众的麻烦很快就会消失。
