When I see your smile tears roll down my face I can't replace .And now that I'm strong I have figured out how this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul, and I know ill find deep inside me, I can be the one.I will never let you fall I'll stand up for you forever ill be there for you through it all,even if saving you sends me to heaven.Seasons are changing and waves are crashing and stars are falling all for us days grow longer and nights grow shorterI can show you I'll be the one.I will never let you fall I'll stand up for you forever.I'll be there for you through it all,even if saving you sends me to heaven.Cause you're myyou're my my true lovemy whole heartplease don't throw that away.Cause I'm here, for you please don't walk away and please tell me you'll stay, stay...Use me as you will pull my strings just for a thrill and I know ill be okay though my skies are turning gray.I will never let you fall I'll stand up for you forever I'll be there for you through it all even if saving you sends me to heaven.
These two lines are anaphoras because they both repeat the same word at the beggining.
These anaphors enhance the song by adding emotion and it helps the listener understand how it feels to need someone. It doesnt detract anything.
In "The Saddest Song" by The Ataris, there are some epistrophes,
Only two more days, until your birthdayYesterday was mine You'll be turning five I know what it's like, growing up without your father in your life So I pretend, I'm doing all I can And I hope someday you'll find it in your heart To understand Why I'm not around And forgive me for not being in your life I remember waiting For you to come Remember waiting For you to call Remember waiting there to find nothing at all I remember waiting For you to come Remember waiting For you to call Waiting there to find nothing at all maybe someday you really get to know menot just the letters read to you I pray I get the chance To make it up to you We got a lot of catching up to do So I pretend, I'm doing all I can And hope someday you'll find it in your heart To understand Why I'm not aroundAnd forgive me for not being in your life I remember waiting For you to come Remember waiting For you to call Remember waiting there to find nothing at all I remember waiting For you to come Remember waiting For you to call Waiting there to find nothing at all Forgive me!I'm so sorry!I will make it up to you....
These are epistrophes because they repeat the word "waiting" often throughout these lines.
Repeating the line "I remember waiting" enhances the song because it's explainin what this person had to though while "waiting" for his father to come back. It helps the listening relate to the song and the lyrics ecspecially if they have gone thruogh something like this themselves. Everyone is waiting for something whether it's a person or not, waiting when you know its useless is tough to do but it shows that people don't give up when things are improtnat to them.
