All My Loving (The Beatles)



All My Loving 
(The Beatles / Yannick Bovy)

Close your eyes and I’LL KISS you
Tomorrow I’LL MISS you
Remember I’LL always BE true.

And then while I'm away
I’LL WRITE home every day
And I’LL SEND all my loving to you.

I’LL PRETEND that I AM KISSING
The lips I AM MISSING
And hope that my dreams WILL COME true.

And then while I'm away
I’LL WRITE home every day
And I’LL SEND all my loving to you.

All my loving I WILL SEND to you.
All my loving, darling I’LL BE true.

Close your eyes and I’LL KISS you
Tomorrow I’LL MISS  you
Remember I’LL always BE true.

And then while I'm away
I’LL WRITE home every day
And I’LL SEND all my loving to you.

All my loving I WILL SEND to you.
All my loving, darling I’LL BE true.

All my loving
All my loving (uuh uuh)

All my loving I WILL SEND to you.

Irreplaceable (Beyoncé)




Irreplaceable (Beyoncé)

To the left..
To the left..

To the left to the left
Everything you own in the box to the LEFT
In the closet, yes that's my stuff
Yes, if I bought it, then please don't touch (don't touch)

And keep on talking that mess, that’s FINE
Could you WALK and TALK at the same time?
And- it’s my NAME that’s on that jag
So go move your bags, let me call you a cab

Standing in the FRONT yard, telling me
How I'm such a fool, talking 'bout
How I'll never ever find a MAN like you
You got me twisted

You must not know about me
You must not know about me
I could have another you in a MINUTE
Matter of fact, he'll be here in a MINUTE (baby)

You must not know about me
You must not know about me
I could have another you by TOMORROW
So don't you ever for a SECOND get to thinkin'
You're irreplaceable

So go AHEAD and get gone
Call up that chick, and see if she’s home
Oops, I bet you thought, that I didn't know
What did you think I was putting you out for?
Because you was untrue
Rolling around in the CAR that I bought you
Baby, drop them KEYS
Hurry up, before your TAXI leaves

REPEAT CHORUS

So since I'm not your everything
How about I be nothing? Nothing at all to you
Baby I won't shed a tear for you
I won't lose a wink of sleep
Cause the truth of the matter is
Replacing you is so easy

To the left, to the left
To the left, to the left
Everything you own in the box to the LEFT

Don't you ever for a SECOND get to thinkin'
You're irreplaceable

You must not know about me
You must not know about me
I could have another you in a MINUTE
Matter of fact, he'll be here in a MINUTE (baby)

You must not know about me
You must not know about me
I could have another you by TOMORROW
So don't you ever for a SECOND get to thinkin'
You're irreplaceable

You can pack all your things- we're finished
Cause you made your bed now lay in it
I could have another you by tomorrow
Don't you ever for a second get to thinkin'
You're irreplaceable

You Don't Own Me




You Don't Own Me 
(Lesley Gore / The Blow Monkeys)

You don't own me
I'm not just one of your many toys
You don't own me
Don't say I can't go with other boys

And don't tell me what to do
And don't tell me what to say
And, please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display

'Cause you don't own me
Don't try to change me in any way
You don't own me
Don't tie me down, I will never stay

Oh, don't tell me what to do
And don't tell me what to say
And, please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display

I don't tell you what to say
And I don't tell you what to do
So just let me be myself
That's all I ask of you

I'm young and I love to be young
I'm free and I love to be free
To live my life the way I want
To say and do whatever I please

You don't own me

Skyline Pigeon (Elton John)

Skyline Pigeon (Elton John)

Turn me loose from your hands
Let me fly to distant lands
Over green fields, trees and mountains
Flowers and forest fountains
Home along the lanes of the skyway

For this dark and lonely room
Projects a shadow cast in gloom
And my eyes are mirrors
Of the world outside
Thinking of the way
That the wind can turn the tide
And these shadows turn
From purple into gray

For just a Skyline Pigeon
Dreaming of the open
Waiting for the day
He can spread his wings
And fly away again

Fly away, skyline pigeon fly
Towards the dreams
You've left so very far behind
(repeat)

Let me wake up in the morning
To the smell of new mown hay
To laugh and cry,
To live and die
In the brightness of my day

I want to hear the pealing bells
Of distant churches sing
But most of all please free me
From this aching metal ring
And open out this cage towards the sun

For just a Skyline Pigeon
Dreaming of the open
Waiting for the day
He can spread his wings
And fly away again

Fly away skyline pigeon fly
Towards the dreams
You've left so very far behind
(repeat)


ENG 115: Future Forms






We use will / won’t (= will not) + the infinitive for predictions about the future.

We also use will when we decide something at the moment of speaking.

We use the Present Continuous more for arrangements with other people.

We use be + going to + infinitive for intentions.

Sometimes it’s important to choose the right structure, but often we could use either because many events are both arrangements and intentions.

We usually avoid saying going to go, just because it doesn’t sound very elegant. We normally use the Present Continuous with go.

We use be + going to + infinitive for predictions too, especially when you can see something happening or about to happen.
