Count on Me (Bruno Mars)

If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea,

I'll sail the world to find you

If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can't see,

I'll be the light to guide you

Find out what we're made of

When we are called to help our friends in need

You can count on me like one two three

I'll be there

And I know when I need it I can count on you like four three two

You'll be there

'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh yeah

Whoa, whoa

Oh, oh

Yeah, yeah

If you tossin' and you're turnin' and you just can't fall asleep

I'll sing a song

Beside you

And if you ever forget how much you really mean to me

Everyday I will

Remind you

From the first verse, what lesson can we get?

• We should sail the world

• We should guide people

• We should help our friends

• We shouldn't go to the dark

Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest Come taste the sun sweet berries of the Earth Come roll in all the riches all around you And for once, never wonder what they're worth The last line of the lyrics ask people to....

• stop enjoying the beauty of the nature

• stop asking how much money they have

• stop trying to find out how they can make money out of the nature

• stop spending money to enjoy the beauty of the earth.

Isn't it remarkable?

Like every time a rain drop falls

It's just another ordinary miracle today

Birds in winter have their fling

But always make it home by spring

It's just another ordinary miracle today

When you wake up everyday

Please don't throw your dreams away

Hold them close to your heart

'Cause we're all a part

Of the ordinary miracle

According to the excerpt, miracle....

• happens rarely

• never happens

• sometimes happens

• happens every day

I'm on an island

Even when you're close

Can't take the silence

I'd rather be alone

I think it's pretty plain and simple

We gave it all we could

It's time I wave goodbye from the window

Let's end this like we should and say we're good

Who are 'we' described in that excerpt?

• us, all human beings

• people who live in the island

• people who run away to an island

• a couple who are in conflict

You know you can call me if you need someone

I'll pick up the pieces if you come undone

Painting stars up on your ceiling 'cause you

Wish that you could find some feeling, yeah, you

You know you can call me if you need someone

I need you to hold on

Heaven is a place not too far away

We all know I should be the one

To say we all make mistakes (we all make mistakes)

Take my hand and hold on

Tell me everything that you need to say

'Cause I know how it feels to be someone

Feels to be someone who loses their way

That song is about....

• someone who offers help for another person

• someone who falls in love

• someone who is desperate

• someone who enjoys life to the fullest
