FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE
Examples of Figurative Language in Popular Songs
My heart will go on – Celine Dion
Every night in my dreams I see you, I feel you…
Love can touch us one time, and last for a lifetime…
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
The above lines use hyperbole in the line ‘near far, wherever you are….” The songwriter exaggerates the
way to illustrate the main character’s presence to the listeners. ‘Love’ is personified in the lines ‘love can
touch us one time’.
