Dreamer
Backini Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm a dreamer
But I won't be happy
Till you make me happy, too

I'm a dreamer
But I won't be happy
Till you make me happy, too
The day is my enemy
The night, my friend
For I'm always so alone
Till the day draws to an end

I'm a dreamer
But I won't be happy
Till you make me happy, too

I'm a dreamer
But I won't be happy
Till you make me happy, too

The day is my enemy
The night, my friend
For I'm always so alone
Till the day draws to an end

I'm a dreamer
But I won't be happy
Till you make me happy, too

I'm a dreamer
But I won't be happy
Till you make me happy, too

Crashing back
Right, right, right
Right
Crashing back

I'm a dreamer
But I won't be happy
Till you make me happy, too

I'm a dreamer
But I won't be happy
Till you make me happy, too





I'm a dreamer

Overall Meaning

In Backini's song Dreamer, the lyrics convey a sense of longing and dissatisfaction with the current state of the singer's life. They are a dreamer, someone who envisions a different, better life for themselves, but they believe that they cannot achieve true happiness until someone else helps them get there. The day is described as an enemy and the night as a friend, suggesting that the singer feels isolated and alone during the day, but find some solace in the comfort of nightfall. Yet, even in the darkness, the dreamer's thoughts remain focused on the person they are waiting for to come and fulfill their dreams.


The repeated phrase, "I won't be happy till you make me happy, too", reveals the singer's dependence on someone else to bring them happiness. It speaks to the idea that human connection is essential to our sense of well-being and that without it, we can feel lost and unfulfilled. It's important to note that this dependence isn't necessarily healthy, as it puts the dreamer's happiness in the hands of someone else, rather than taking control of their own life and emotions. The song ends with the phrase "crashing back", implying that despite their dreams, the dreamer has yet to find what they are truly looking for and have come crashing back to reality.


Overall, Dreamer is a poignant reflection on the human experience of longing for something more, of searching for happiness, and of the emotional weight that can come from feeling alone.

Interesting. I like the Snare & how there is plenty going on in the background to add depth to the sound; I don't get how some like to know exactly what is happening in a track. What, are they scared of anything more complex or detailed than all the trite on beatport or something? This has mystery. Just like Portishead.  ;)
