Hunny
Dom Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Blonde hair she didn't care
Couldn't tell what she was thinkin
Didn't know where I was sleeping
Getting wild my heart was on fire
I wanted to be hers for the weekend
She didn't tell me that she was sleeping

Listen here hunny
Breaking my heart ain't funny yow

Hanging out on the couch
I wonder if she thought I was creepy
Was watchin her just watchin the TV
I was an idiot
I shoulda went for it
I watched her walkin into the kitchen
And after that my hunny went missin

Listen here hunny
Breaking my heart ain't funny yow

Overall Meaning

The song "Hunny" by Dom explores the experience of falling for someone deeply but never being able to fully express your feelings or make a move. The lyrics detail the singer's encounter with a girl who catches his eye, with her blonde hair adding to her allure. However, her thoughts and intentions are unclear and he cannot read her - he doesn't know where he's sleeping metaphorically, nor does he know where he stands with her. Despite this, he's passionate about her and desires to be with her for the weekend, but she gives no indication of reciprocating his feelings, instead choosing to keep sleeping alone in her own bed.


The second verse sees the singer lamenting his own mistakes, wondering if he came across as creepy while they were hanging out. He reflects on how he should have been more assertive and taken a chance, but instead, he sat back and watched her, not wanting to overstep his boundaries. He regrets not making a move when he had the chance, as she ends up walking away from him and disappearing - it's unclear where she went, but the implication is they will never see each other again.


In conclusion, "Hunny" is a melancholic yet catchy song that explores the emotions of falling for someone you cannot have. Rather than focusing on heartbreak or anger, the lyrics express a sense of longing and regret, with a sprinkling of hopelessness. The instrumentation is simple but effective, complementing the lyrics well, and the vocal delivery is raw and sincere. It is a relatable story of what could have been but what wasn't meant to be.
