Hello! I'm Lyrkit!

I tried many ways to memorize English words and found the most effective one for me!

We already have all the words of the songs that we have heard throughout our lives in our memory. We simply did not pay attention to them, but we all already hear them!

I noticed that when you learn a new word from a song that you have already heard before, you already know the translation of this word forever and you will never forget it!

I want to share this method with you. So, the scheme is as follows.

We find songs that we have already heard.

We add all unfamiliar words from them.

We pass mini tests of memory games. done

Now that you know a lot of words, you will very quickly come to know the whole language!

I bet you'll be surprised how effective this method is!)

I Didn't Know The World Would Last This Long

 

I Didn't Know The World Would Last This Long

(album: John Hartford - 1969)


I stumbled through a yellow field of dying grass
In front of me, some happy people quickly pass
Inhaling deep the air, while love goes flying high
While younger hands in distant windows wave good bye

I forgot to live in oh so many ways
I thought I saw the numbers marked on all the days
I trembled at the warnings of the sad old men
"Beware my son, the earth is coming to an end"

But now a breeze of simple truth blows through my hair
Striking down the fences in my vacant stare
I'm stretching out my arms to fly, I know I am free
I find I'm getting younger now, the more I see

I didn't know the world would last this long
I didn't know I'd ever sing this song
I didn't know how right I could be wrong
And I didn't know the world would last this long

Words of fear go spinning out across the land
To those who need the guidance of a reassuring hand
Spelling out the hope for every newborn babe
Brought into a world so full of war and hate

They'll stumble through the muddy ruts of narrow rules
Hung up on the sidewalk with the ancient fools
While someone's softly singing, now comes walking by
Suddenly they'll find their voice, and then they'll cry

I didn't know the world would last this long
I didn't know I'd ever sing this song
I didn't know how right I could be wrong
And I didn't know the world would last this long

done

Did you add all the unfamiliar words from this song?
