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!)

Close But No Cigar

 

Close But No Cigar

(album: Astronauts & Heretics - 1992)


You came close
Close but no cigar
You didn't miss by far
You know you came this close
Close but no cigar

Some people sing love songs
Everybody's got one
This isn't my love song
It's more like my love-gone-wrong song

She came to breakfast
And stayed a week
But the lie detectors
Broke down each time she tried to speak
Broke down when she said:

"You came close
Close but no cigar
You didn't miss by far
You know you came this close

Close but no cigar
No matter where you are
You know you came this close
Close but no cigar"

I remember, I remember, I remember
The promise in your eyes
As black as the night I drove you to the airport
And I remember, I remember, I remember
The wide Brazilian sky that swallowed you, you

Then I hit thirty
Guess I can't complain
But I must have been lonely
The night I bumped into Lorraine

She came for coffee
And stayed all night
But the lie detectors
Broke down every time I tried to smile
Broke down like the story of my life
And each dream I missed by half a mile
Broke down when I told her:

"You came close
Close but no cigar
You didn't miss by far
You know you came this close

Close but no cigar
No matter where you are
You know you came so close
Close but no cigar
You didn't miss by far
You know you came this close
Close but no cigar
We're better off by far
But you know we came this close
Close but no cigar"

done

Did you add all the unfamiliar words from this song?
