         A song-based listening activity, "GOOD DAY" is a resource to practise listening, stress, rhythm and intonation, apart from some grammar aspects and vocabulary. 

   The learners should read the lyrics a couple of times before starting the activity. Then, they should listen or watch the video and follow the instructions: either to fill in the blanks or choose the right word. They will also have to rearrange the lines in one  stanza or even rearrange several stanzas.
 Phonetics will play a key role in this activity and  the   students’ passive  vocabulary will be activated while   new vocabulary will be acquired.

      "Good Day" Listening Exercise is suitable for A2, B1 & B2  learners of English.

 I hope you enjoy this activity and keep finding these materials inspiring and interesting.

LET HER GO LISTENING EXERCISE .KEY.

 LET HER GO LISTENING EXERCISE. KEY

                          


                                  Let her go

            by Passenger

        Listening Exercise

               https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBumgq5yVrA




Let her go


1. Well you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go



2. Staring at the bottom of your glass
Hoping one day you'll make a dream last
But dreams come slow and they go so fast
You see her when you close your eyes
Maybe one day you'll understand why
Everything you touch surely dies



3. But you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go



4. Staring at the ceiling in the dark
Same old empty feeling in your heart
'Cause love comes slow and it goes so fast
Well you see her when you fall asleep
But never to touch and never to keep
'Cause you loved her too much and you dive too deep



5. Well you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go
Oh oh oh no
And you let her go
Oh oh oh no
Well you let her go



6. 'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go



7. 'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go
