The Future Simple Tense in Songs

Hello, dear students :)


As you know, we're studying the Future Simple Tense.  Remember that you use it when you're talking about predictions, resolutions, promises and instant decisions.  If you want to express your ideas in a positive way (affirmative) you only need WILL (or the contraction 'LL) plus the verb.  Example: John WILL love Mary forever and they'll be very happy.
      If you want to talk in a negative form, you must use WILL NOT (or the contraction WON'T) plus the verb, e.g. John WON'T love another girl.
     It could be a good idea that you find some songs that contain the use of this tense to know how to apply it.  Here are some students' suggestions:

  2.  'I'll give it all I got, that is my plan. Will I find what I lost? How will I know it there's a path worth taking?' Song: "Bet on it", by Zac Efron.  (Suggested by Jenny, 3rd B) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdg1vfKkJms
  3.  'In dreams you will lose your heartaches...' Song: "A dream is a wish your heart makes", by Circle of Stars.  (Suggested by Vasti, 3rd B) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=igOB-tV0DJg
