Task 1 Listen to the song, then discuss about the feel of the song.
"You Raise Me Up"
When I am down and, oh, my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be; Then I am still and wait here in the silence, Until you come and sit awhile with me.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas; I am strong when I am on your shoulders; You raise me up to more than I can be.
There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly; But when you come and I am filled with wonder, Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

You raise me up to walk on stormy seas; I am strong when I am on your shoulders; You raise me up to more than I can be. Task 2

Someone Like You
I heard that you’re settled down,
That you found a girl and you’re married now, I heard that your dreams came true, Guess she gave you things I didn’t give to you, Old friend, why are you so shy? Ain’t like you to hold back or hide from the light, I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited, But I couldn’t stay away, I couldn’t fight it, I had hoped you’d see my face, And that you’d be reminded that for me it isn’t over,
Chorus: Never mind, I’ll find someone like you, I wish nothing but the best for you, too, Don’t forget me, I beg, I remember you said, “Sometimes it lasts in love, But sometimes it hurts instead,” Sometimes it lasts in love, But sometimes it hurts instead, yeah,
You know how the time flies,
Only yesterday was the time of our lives, We were born and raised in a summer haze, Bound by the surprise of our glory days,
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn’t stay away, I couldn’t fight it, I had hoped you’d see my face, And that you’d be reminded that for me it isn’t over,
(Back to chorus)
Nothing compares, No worries or cares, Regrets and mistakes, they’re memories made, Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?
