Song of the Simple Past

Sometimes in life you need to describe
Something that happened and it’s been a while.
You use it about something that is done and dusted
It’s easy to remember it’s the Simple Past, and
Everyone knows with regular verbs
You just put “ED” at the end of the word.
But irregular verbs can be very hard -
The only chance you have is to learn them by heart, so

I found, you sought
I threw, you caught
I sold, you bought …and you paid
I ate, you drank
I grew, you shrank
You swam while I sank

You forgave me when I rang
I thought that we could, so we began.

The past of “be” is I /he/she/it was;
The others take “were” - but you knew that, of course!
When you need to make a question you use “Did” at the start,
Like: “Did you like this song about the Simple Past?”

It’s used when something happened at a certain time
Or for a longer period that stopped after a while.
It often goes with expressions like “yesterday” or “ago”.
The Brits say “learnt” and “dreamt”, but Americans don’t… so

You slept, I woke
You heard, I spoke
I lent, it bent and it broke!
I wrote, you drew
I rode, you flew
You stood while I ran

You forgave me when I rang
I thought that we could, so we began.

So we began, so we began.
