It was fine.

Summer after high school when we first met We make out in your Mustang to Radiohead And on my 18th birthday,
4
we got matching tattoos
5
Used to steal your parents' liquor and climb to the roof Talk about a future like we had a clue
6
Never planned that one day I'd be losing you In another life,
7
I would be your girl We keep all our promises,
8
be us against the will In another life,
9
I would make you stay So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
10
The one that got away I was June and you were my Johnny Cash Never one without the other,
11
we made it part Sometimes when I miss you,
12
I put those records on Whoa Someone said you had your tattoo removed Saw you downtown,
13
singing the blues It's time to face the music,
14
I'm no longer your muse But in another life,
15
I would be your girl We keep all our promises,
16
be us against the world In another life,
17
I would make you stay So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
18
The one that got away The one The one The one,
19
the one that got away All this money can't buy me a time machine
20
No, can't replace you with a million rings No,
21
I should've told you what you meant to me Cause now I pay the price
22
In another life, I would be your girl We keep all our promises,
23
be us against the world In another life,
24
I would make you stay So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
25
The one that got away The one,
26
the one The one, the one The one,
27
the woman, the woman In another life,
28
I would make you stay So I don't have to stay where I want to go The one that got away
29
I've always loved you and made you happy And nothing else could come between
30
But now you've left me to love another You have shattered all of my dreams
31
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
