She was 19 with a baby on the way On the

east side of the city she was working every day Cleaning

dishes in the evening she could barely stay awake She was clinging to the feeling

that her luck was gonna change

And across town she would take the bus at night To a one bedroom apartment

and when she'd turn on the lights She would sit down at the table tell herself

that it's alright She was waiting on the day she hoped her baby would arrive She'd never be alone,

have someone to hold And when nights were cold, she'd say The world's not perfect,

but it's not that bad If we got each other

and that's all we have I will be your mother

and I'll hold your hand You should know I'll be there for you When the world's not perfect, when the world's not kind If we have each other,

then we'll both be fine I will be your mother

and I'll hold your hand You should know I'll be there for you They were 90

and were living out the days On the west side of

the city next to where they got engaged They had pictures on the walls of all the memories

that they made And though life is never easy, they were thankful that they stayed With each other and though some times were hard Even when she made him angry, he would never break a heart No,

they didn't have the money to afford a fancy car

But they never had to travel cause they'd never be apart Even at the end,

their love was stronger than The day that they first met, they'd say The world's not perfect,

but it's not that bad If we got each other

and that's all we have I will be your lover

and I'll hold your hand You should know I'll be there for you When the world's not perfect, when the world's not kind If we have each other,

then we'll both be fine I will be your lover

and I'll hold your hand You should know I'll be there for you

You should know I'll be there for you

I'm 23 and my folks are getting old I know they don't have forever

and I'm scared to be alone So I'm thankful for my sister even though sometimes we fight When high school wasn't easy, she's the reason I survived I know she never leave me

and I hate to see her cries

So I wrote this verse to tell her

that I'm always by her side I wrote this verse to tell her

that I'm always by her side I wrote this verse to tell her that

The world's not perfect but it's not that bad

If we got each other and that's all we have I will be your brother

and I'll hold your hand You should know I'll be there for you When the world's not perfect, when the world's not kind

If we have each other then we'll both be fine I will be your brother

and I'll hold your hand You should know I'll be there for you

You should know I'll be there for you

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
