What Christmas Means to Me
歌词:
[English]
Oh, yeah
Candles burnin' low
Lots of mistletoe
Lots of snow and ice
Everywhere we go
(Choir singin' carols)
Right outside my door
All these things and more (all these things and more)
That's what Christmas means to me, my love
(That's what Christmas means to me, my love) oh, yeah
Oh, yeah and ya know what I mean
I see your smilin' face
Like I never seen before
Even though I love ya madly
It seems I love you more
The little cards you'll give-me
Will touch my heart for sure
All these things and more, darlin' (all these things and more)
Whoa, that's what Christmas means to me my love
(That's what Christmas means to me, my love) oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
Ah, I feel like a runnin' wild (runnin' wild)
As an anxious as a-little-child
I greet you 'neath the mistletoe
Kiss you once and then some more
I wish you a merry Christmas baby (wish you a merry Christmas baby)
Whoa
And such happiness in the comin' year (happiness in the comin' year)
Oh, baby
Let's deck the halls with holly
Sing sweet silent night
Fill the tree with angel hair
And pretty, pretty lights
Go to sleep and wake up
Just before daylight
All these things and more, baby (all these things and more)
Whoa
That's what Christmas means to me, my love
(That's what Christmas means to me, my love)
Oh, baby, baby
...
Yeah
Candles burnin' low
Lots and lots of snow (alright)
Christmas bells are ringin'
Christmas choirs singin' (woo)
Christmas mistletoe
Oh, yeah
Haha, haha, haha
...

语法:
-
Candles burnin' low
➔ 省略（省略了“are”）
➔ 这是“Candles are burning low”的缩写形式。助动词“are”被省略，以产生更非正式和诗意的效果。
-
Lots of mistletoe
➔ 量词 "lots of" + 名词
➔ “Lots of”表示大量。 后面跟的是名词“mistletoe”。
-
Everywhere we go
➔ 副词 “Everywhere” + 主语 + 动词 (省略倒装)
➔ 短语“Everywhere we go”强调了某种感觉或事物的普遍性。像“everywhere”这样的副词短语之后的典型词序是倒装（Everywhere do we go），但在这里省略了。
-
I see your smilin' face
➔ 现在简单时，动名词作形容词（“smilin'”）
➔ 动词“see”是现在简单时。“Smilin'”是动名词，用作形容词来描述“face”。 这是 smiling 的缩写形式。
-
Like I never seen before
➔ 语法错误（seen 代替 saw）
➔ 这行使用过去分词“seen”代替了过去简单时“saw”。 虽然在语法上不正确，但这是非正式语音中常见的用法，尤其是在某些方言中。
-
Even though I love ya madly
➔ 从属连词 “Even though” + 从句（对比）
➔ “Even though”引入了一个对比的想法。 尽管说话者疯狂地爱着某人，但其他事情仍在发生。
-
It seems I love you more
➔ 非人称表达 “It seems” + 从句
➔ “It seems”用于表达印象或感觉，而无需直接陈述事实。 它介绍了从句“I love you more”。
-
Will touch my heart for sure
➔ 将来时（will + 动词）
➔ “Will touch”表达了未来的动作。短语“for sure”强调了行动的确定性。
-
I feel like a runnin' wild
➔ 非正式语法：“runnin'”代替“running”； “like”用于表达感觉或比较。
➔ 这行使用非正式缩写 “runnin'” 而不是 “running”。 短语 “feel like” 表达了类似于狂奔的感觉或感觉。 它表示一种兴奋和自由的感觉。
