Daydream
The Aces Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Daydream 'bout me
And I know that you hate the nights without me
Baby, I hate 'em too
But you know, but you know, but you know
I'm comin' back to you

Midnight my heart is racing
We're wide awake in
This hotel room
We only got 6 hours
But sleep don't matter
When I'm with you

So just hold on
To the memory of me
Riding in your front seat everyday
And I'll hold on
To the smell of your sweater
That you wore in December
When we met

Daydream 'bout me
And I know that you hate the nights without me
Baby, I hate 'em too
But you know, but you know, but you know
I'm comin' back to you

Daydream 'bout me
And I know that you hate the nights without me
Baby, I hate 'em too
But you know, but you know, but you know
I'm comin' back to you

Midnight your voice is shakin'
You're losing patience
So far away
But you know that I'd rather run away with you
Forget about the things that we gotta do
Oh I would rather be at home with you right now

So just hold on
To the memory of me
Riding in your front seat everyday (everyday)
And I'll hold on
To the smell of your sweater
That you wore in December
When we met
(I gotta go right now but until then)

Daydream 'bout me
And I know that you hate the nights without me
Baby, I hate 'em too
But you know, but you know, but you know
I'm comin' back to you

Daydream 'bout me
And I know that you hate the nights without me
Baby, I hate 'em too




But you know, but you know, but you know
I'm comin' back to you

Overall Meaning

The Aces' "Daydream" is a song about long distance relationships and the struggles that come with being apart from the one you love. The chorus ("Daydream 'bout me, and I know that you hate the nights without me, baby I hate 'em too, but you know I'm coming back to you") highlights the fact that both parties are equally affected by the separation and that they are counting down the days until they can be reunited.


The verses provide further insight into the emotions of the couple. The first verse paints a picture of a sleepless night in a hotel room, where the only solace is being with each other. The lyric "We only got 6 hours, but sleep don't matter when I'm with you" reflects the idea that even a short amount of time together is better than none at all. The second verse depicts the desperation of the situation, with one person losing patience and the other wishing they could be home instead of dealing with the stress of being apart.



Line by Line Meaning

Daydream 'bout me
Think about me and imagine our time together


And I know that you hate the nights without me
I understand that you dislike being apart from me at night


Baby, I hate 'em too
My feelings are mutual, I also dislike it when we're apart at night


But you know, but you know, but you know
I want to remind you that I am coming back to you soon


I'm comin' back to you
I am returning to you and our relationship


Midnight my heart is racing
At night, I feel anxious and excited thinking about you


We're wide awake in
We can't sleep, we are both too focused on each other


This hotel room
The place where we are currently staying


We only got 6 hours
Our time together is limited to a short amount of time


But sleep don't matter
I'd rather spend my time with you than sleep


When I'm with you
Being with you is more important to me than anything else


So just hold on

I will also cherish our memories and our time together


To the smell of your sweater
The scent of your clothes reminds me of you and our time together


That you wore in December
When we first met and started our relationship


When we met
The early days of our relationship and how it started


Midnight your voice is shakin
At night, you miss me and your voice sounds emotional


You're losing patience
You are getting fed up with being apart from me


So far away
Our distance from each other feels unbearable


But you know that I'd rather run away with you
I would rather leave all my responsibilities behind and be with you


Forget about the things that we gotta do
I want to forget about everything else and just focus on our relationship


Oh I would rather be at home with you right now
Being with you is where I feel most comfortable and happy


(I gotta go right now but until then)
I have to leave now, but I will be back soon

Maybe they were hoping to win my award for Best Song Under Three Minutes. It's a decent effort but the winner is Right! by 루엘 (Ruel). The video was posted six years ago in April 2016, I wrote the first comment four years ago, and it now has 985 views and 20 likes.
