Alliteration

The following 3 songs all fit into my genre of pop music and my theme of the good and/or bad parts of love/relationships. All 3 of these songs use alliteration.

Key:
Consonance/Assonance

*** Repeat examples are only highlighted the first time they appear.***

D is For Dangerous ~ Allison Iraheta

A is for all I want
B is for badly
C is for can't you stay long
'Cuz I want you so madly
E is for no escape
'Cuz I don't wanna leave you
F is for fallin' too
Fast with no parachute, oh

And who's gonna save me now
Oh

You're taking me under
Stolen my thunder
And I think I'm all out of fight
I want you to win
All that I ever was
Is burning in this lust
Your love is a weapon
And it's turning me to dust
D is for dangerous
D is for dangerous

G for get outta here
It's really too much
H is for how do I leave
When I'm addicted, to your love
I is for insane
It smells like danger
J is for jump off the ship
Or the storm will take you

And who's gonna save me now
Oh

You're taking me under
Stolen my thunder
And I think I'm all out of fight
I want you to win
All that I ever was
Is burning in this lust
Your love is a weapon
And it's turning me to dust
D is for dangerous
D is for dangerous
D is for dangerous
D is for dangerous

K is for killing me
L is for I can't leave
Oh, 'cuz I'll never make it
If I'm not living on the edge
As for the rest
Let's just forget
'Cuz I'll never want out of this

You're taking me under
Stolen my thunder
And I think I'm all out of fight
I want you to win
All that I ever was
Is burning in this lust
Your love is a weapon
And it's turning me to dust
D is for dangerous
D is for dangerous
D is for dangerous
D is for dangerous

Lucky ~ Jason Mraz feat. Colbie Caillat


Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Oooohhhhoohhhhohhooohhooohhooohoooh

They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music, feel the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through the trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Alright With Me ~ Kris Allen

I'm a little pawn still in your game
And you ignore my advances
I turn my head and I look away
But I can't control my eyes are on you

Oh, you're on the run and I'm chasing you
Feels like war with all your glances
I'm just a boy without a clue
And I can't control following you

But it's alright, alright with me
It's alright, alright with me
It's alright, alright with me
It's alright, alright with me

I know you better than you know
You can fight but it's not over
I say to stop but you start to go
I guess that means it's L-O-V-E

I say to look but you turn away
I say we put our best foot forward
Will you believe, come next to me
Oh, why can't you see, I'm begging you, please

But it's alright, alright with me
It's alright, alright with me
It's alright, alright with me
It's alright, alright with me
It's alright, alright with me

(Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah)

And I'm knocking on your door
Baby baby, please now
Falling on your floor
Baby baby, please
I keep knocking on your door
Baby, baby, please now
Falling on your floor
Baby baby, please

But it's alright, alright with me
It's alright, alright with me
It's alright, alright with me
It's alright, alright with me
