One rain is judged, few Like a faint flower gone insane Seeming so blue,
2
like it'll climb too I just wanna tell you someday Love,
3
call me to love you That's a great magic word I want to see Kind
4
and so true like it'll fade through I just wanna tell you some way
5
If I became a butterfly so free I'd fall into the sky
6
if once you see Every little wish I had them Excessing carry them,
7
hold them again The swaying fire and screaming fly I If I could wallow in that die
8
I'll give you back and that'll grow with time Until I see the happiness we have thrives A swing and fire,
9
let's see the fly It's always lighting up the night Cause deep inside,
10
now even hate I find In my mind makes an impact that I just can't hurt Someway,
11
somehow, one can bear it alone This pain deep down,
12
that's how love it will show We're here right now,
13
though we don't even know How far we'll go Fire,
14
the swaying fire If we could wallow in the dye
15
In every second that's a dream in the night May every pleasure fill up your eyes The swaying fire,
16
the burning fly away We're running into the flames I'll give you everything,
17
including your life Tomorrow's drama,
18
love will provide As I said,
19
accept and take them, hold them again This way you fly,
20
you're screaming fly If I could wallow in that die
21
We have this passion that'll change our lives anytime Make this happiness of ours Thrive this way you fly
22
We are the burning flying waves We're running into the flames Cause deep inside,
23
now leaving hate I find And my mind makes an impact that I just can't hide Someway,
24
somehow, walking better The loath is fading deep down That's our love
25
and we'll show We're here right now Though we don't even know how far we'll go Thank you.

What is the Shadowing Technique?

Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
