HERES THE song lyric

[FONT=&quot]Lyric – [ Maroon 5 – This Love ]’[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]I was so high I did not recognize
The fire burning in her eyes
The chaos that controlled my mind
Whispered goodbye and she got on a plane
Never to return again
But always in my heart

This love has taken it’s toll on me
She said goodbye too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
I have no choice cause I won’t say goodbye anymore

I tried my best to feed her appetite
Keep her coming every night
So hard to keep her satisfied
Kept playing love like it was just a game
Pretending to feel the same
Then turn around and leave again

This love has taken it’s toll on me
She said goodbye too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
I have no choice cause I won’t say goodbye anymore

I’ll fix these broken things
Repair your broken wings
And make sure everything’s alright
My pressure on her hips
Sinking my fingertips
Into every inch of you
Cause I know that’s what you want me to do

Well, english is definately not my best sub' but i'll try to help (a lil)
with the photo u got there,
they obviously r "sort of" dancing... with an umbrella..
thats not it lol,
these kind of picture normally attracts the ladies that are around 14 - 3X becoz it romantic to dance in the "rain"
The man nd the woman r hugging nd they look like they'r enjoying themselves..
I cant tell u much unless u tell me where the photo came from... coz u wont kno wat its for if u duno wher it came from..

with the song which i love.. LOL
purpose -> entertain, tell a story (mayb), express feelings,
language feature -> emotive, expressive,
audience -> general public, teenagers nd young adults
Culture -> obviously ppl who understand eng, ppl who have adapted the western culture to listen to english music
sex -> both bcoz its a love song

now... wheres my biscuit?
just jk
hope it helped u a lil bit,
nd pls add to it if u c something that i didnt
