Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Every night i rush to my bed
With hopes that maybe i'll get a chance to see you
When i close my eyes i'm going out of my head
Lost in a fairytale can you hold my hands and be my guide
Clouds filled with stars cover the skies
What kinda of dream is this
You could be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way i dont want to wake up from you
(turn the lights on)
Sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Somebody pinch me your love's to good to be true
(turn the lights on)
My guilty pleasure i ain't going no where
Baby long as you're here i'll be floating on air
Cause your my
You could be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way i dont want to wake up from you
(turn the lights on)
I mention you when i say my prayers
I wrap you around all of my thoughts
Boy you're my temporary high
I wish that when i wake up you're there
To wrap you're arms around me for real
And tell me you'll stay by my side
Clouds filled with stars cover the skies
And i hope it rains you're the perfect lullaby
What kinda of dream is this
You could be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way i dont want to wake up from you
(turn the lights on)
Sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Somebody pinch me your love's to good to be true
(turn the lights on)
My guilty pleasure i ain't going no where
Baby long as you're here i'll be floating on air
Cause your my
You could be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way i dont want to wake up from you
(turn the lights on)
Tattoo you're name across my heart so it will remain
Not even death can make us part
What kind of dream is this
You could be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way i dont want to wake up from you
(turn the lights on)
Sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Somebody pinch me your love's to good to be true
(turn the lights on)
My guilty pleasure i ain't going no where
Baby long as you're here i'll be floating on air
Cause your my
You could be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way i dont want to wake up from you
(turn the lights on)
You could be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way i dont want to wake up from you
(turn the lights on)
Either way i dont want to wake up from you
The song "Sweet Dreams" by Flo-Rida ft. Brianna is about a person's longing for the one they love, whom they see as a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare. The lyrics suggest that every night, the singer goes to bed hoping to see their love, who appears to be nothing more than a fairytale. They desperately want their love to be their guide and hold their hand, as they feel lost and confused without them. When the singer mentions the clouds filled with stars, it implies that they see their love as the perfect lullaby, calming and relaxing them. The song's chorus repeats the idea that the singer does not want to wake up from this dream or nightmare, as it is too good to be true.
In the second verse, the singer says that they think of their love when they say their prayers and that they wrap them around all of their thoughts, suggesting that they are constantly thinking about them. They describe their love as a temporary high, indicating that they are addicted to the feeling that their love gives them. They want their love to be real and not just a dream, to have them in their arms and stay by their side forever. They end the song by saying that they want to tattoo their love's name on their heart, suggesting a permanent and eternal love that not even death can break.
