A year without rain by Selena Gomez
Oooooh
Can you feel me when I think about you?
With every breath I take
Every minute, no matter what I do
My world is an empty place
Like I've been wonderin the desert
For a thousand days
Don't know if it's a mirage
But I always see your face, baby
I'm missing you so much
Can't help it, I'm in love
A day without you is like a year without rain
I need you by my side
Don't know how I'll survive
A day without you is like a year without rain
Ohhohoh, Woooaaahh woaahh
The stars are burning
I hear your voice in my mind
Can't you hear me calling
My heart is yearning
Like the ocean that's running dry
Catch me I'm falling
It's like the ground is crumbling underneath my feet
(Won't you save me)
There's gonna be a monsoon
When you get back to me
Ohhhh baby
I'm missing you so much
Can't help it, I'm in love
A day without you is like a year without rain
I need you by my side
Don't know how I'll survive
A day without you is like a year without rain
Ohhohoh, Woooaaahh woaahh
So let this drought come to an end
And make this desert flower again
I'm so glad you found me
Stick around me
Baby, baby, baby, oh
It's a world of wonder with you in my life
Still hurting baby
Don't waste no more time
And I need you here
I can't explain
But a day without you
Is like a year without rain
Ohhohoh
I'm missing you so much
Can't help it, I'm in love
A day without you is like a year without rain
I need you by my side
Don't know how I'll survive
A day without you is like a year without rain
Ohhohoh, Woooaaahh woaahh
Ooohh, Ooooooooouuhh
Answer on What are the poetic devices in this song?
Well repetition is one for sure "A day without you is like a year without rain" is repeated several times.
Is Irony one?
Well irony in the "like an ocean that's running dry". How can the biggest buddy of water not have water?
I am pretty sure exaggeration was an element of poetry, I am not sure what the correct term was, but that is seen in "Like I've been wonderin the desert for a thousand days don't know if it's a mirage" which is an exaggeration because she has not gone through that and is not sure what a mirage is like or how long it takes to appear. Or how long can one survive in a desert.
Hope that helps.
