This is a snippet from a song “I don’t really need you anymore”, perhaps I may have confused:
“I’ve worked at day and worked at night”
“I’d work at day and work at night”
Is there any difference in meaning?
#1 states recently completed work.
#2 states the speaker’s willingness to work in the future.
My doubt is about these two past forms:
“I’ve worked at day and worked at night”
“I’d work at day and work at night”
For me, both sentences have the same meaning, but I’m not sure. So, I wonder if my question is about listening, or if, in fact, both phrases have the same meaning, since, for me, “work at” may sound like “worked”.
I’d work at day and work at night = I would work = past habitual action.
I’ve worked at day and worked at night = past experience.
