DAYBREAK
珍妮·杰克逊Janet Jackson Lyrics

It's after midnight
The time of night is late

And everyone's in their room
People are settling in for the night

And I'm just waiting for the lights to go out
The singer is waiting for everyone in the house to go to sleep

But in the mean time
Until then

I'm ringin' ringin' your phone
The artist is calling their love interest repeatedly

I'm sayin' baby be patient
The singer is asking their love interest to be patient

I have almost escaped to see you
The singer is trying to sneak out to see their love interest

When they fall asleep
Referring to the people in the house

I'm gonna be free
The artist will be free to sneak out

Hope nobody wants to stay up too late
The artist hopes no one stays awake too late and catches them leaving

Cause I'm
Referring to the singer

Sneakin out to play tonight
The artist is sneaking out to have fun with their love interest

Gonna take a taxi ride
The singer will take a taxi to see their love interest

Have fun with you
The singer is looking forward to having fun with their love interest

It feels so good I can't wait
The singer is excited to see their love interest

Feels like a minute when I'm with you then
Time feels shorter when the artist is with their love interest

The whole thing has to end
The artist knows their time with their love interest will not last

Hurry up get back in bed
The singer is telling their love interest to go back to bed before anyone wakes up

Before daybreak
The singer needs to finish their visit before the sun rises

I can't stay inside
The artist cannot stay inside the house

I know I saw you last night
The artist saw their love interest the night before

But it's already been too long
The artist misses their love interest

I need to feel your body
The singer wants to physically be with their love interest

The touch of your body
The artist misses the physical touch of their love interest

But that's not all
Physical touch is not the only aspect the singer misses

No that's not all
Reiterating that the singer misses more than just physical touch

When I'm around you time gets lost
Time feels like it passes quickly when the singer is with their love interest

Sneak down the stairs
The artist is sneaking out of the house

Get money for the fare
The artist needs money for the taxi ride

Time is of the essence
There is a limited amount of time for the singer to see their love interest

So I'll tell the driver hurry up
The singer will ask the driver to go faster

I can't sit still
The artist is very excited

I'm like a lil' kid
The artist is acting like a child due to their excitement

Smilin' 'cause I'll be in your arms in a minute
The artist is smiling because they will soon be with their love interest

Times like this I
Referring to moments with their love interest

Can't afford to miss
The artist cannot miss out on spending time with their love interest

Worth the risk of getting caught
The singer is willing to risk getting caught to see their love interest

Just to have your kiss
The singer is willing to sneak out just to have a moment with their love interest

And when I have to go (it's the saddest)
The singer becomes sad when they have to leave their love interest

But I'm so glad to know
The artist is happy to know they will see their love interest again

I'll see you tomorrow
The artist and their love interest plan on seeing each other again

I wanna spend the weekend
The singer wants to spend a longer period of time with their love interest

Ain't happy that I'm leavin'
The singer is not happy about leaving their love interest

Cause I'm
Referring to the artist

Sneakin out to play tonight
The artist is sneaking out to spend time with their love interest

Gonna take a taxi ride
The artist will take a taxi to see their love interest

Have fun with you
The singer looks forward to having fun with their love interest

It feels so good I can't wait
The artist is excited to see their love interest

Sneak down to the front door
The singer sneaks out to see their love interest

The driver's waiting by the road
The taxi driver is waiting for the singer outside

But hurry up get back in bed
The singer needs to return to bed before anyone in the house wakes up

Before daybreak
The artist needs to leave before the sun rises
