Presentation of past simple through songs

When she was just a girl, she expected the world

But it flew away from her reach

So she ran away in her sleep and dreamed of 

Para-para-paradise, para-para-paradise, para-para-paradiese

Every time she closed her eyes.

Paradise, Coldplay.

 

But I set fire to the rain

Watched it pour as I touched your face

Well, it burned while I cried

Cause I heard it screaming out your name.   

Set fire to the rain, Adele.

You took my hand
You showed me how
You promised me you'd be around
Uh huh
That's right
I took your words
And I believed
In everything
You said to me

Who knew, Pink.

In the town where I was born
Lived a man who sailed to sea
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines
So we sailed up to the sun
Till we found a sea of green
And we lived beneath the waves
In our yellow submarine

Yellow Submarine, The Beatles.
