NEF A1: 4C Five classic love stories



Pride can stand a thousand trials
The strong will never fall
But watching stars without you
My soul cries

Heaving heart is full of pain
Oooh, oooh, the aching
'Cause I'm kissing you, oooh
I'm kissing you, oooh

Touch me deep, pure and true
Give to me forever
'Cause I'm kissing you, oooh
I'm kissing you, oooh

Where are you now
Where are you now
'Cause I'm kissing you
I'm kissing you, oooh

NEF A1: 3 My favourite day

My favourite day of the week is Sunday, because it is when we are all at home.
I usually stay in bed until 9:30. Then I have breakfast and watch TV. After breakfast I often take the dog for a walk. I like to be with my dog very much.
In my house we normally make a big lunch. After lunch we watch TV, we go to the cinema or visit beautiful places. We love nature.
In the evening we often speak to my family in Romania by phone or the Internet. We never go to bed before 12:30.
