Daydream
The Catalina Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm caught in a cold sweat
Girl, I won't forget
What you look like tonight
I'll never get sick of the cloud nine
Of hearing you laugh like
We were just eighteen
And caught up in the ride
You know you can leave if you want to
So take your time
Daydreaming through the night
How did you and I turn it into
A paradise
I can't explain why
You're running through my mind
Is this make believe
Or heartbreak in disguise
I just wanna stare at the sunrise
And kiss in the moonlight
Girl let's make a scene
And drive all through the night
Your head on my shoulders
Just come a bit closer
This moment could never end
Our lips taking over
I'm losing composure
We're falling in again
Just close your eyes
You know you can leave if you want to
So take your time
Daydreaming through the night
How did you and I turn it into
A paradise
Just close your eyes
You know you can leave if you want to
So take your time
Daydreaming through the night
How did you and I turn it into
A paradise
You're running through my mind
Heartbreak in disguise
Your head on my shoulders
Just come a bit closer
This moment could never end
Our lips taking over
I'm losing composure
We're falling in again
Just close your eyes
You know you can leave if you want to
So take your time
Daydreaming through the night
How did you and I turn it into
A paradise
Just close your eyes
You know you can leave if you want to
So take your time
Daydreaming through the night
How did you and I turn it into
A paradise
The Catalina's song "Daydream" is a dreamy and nostalgic portrayal of a past love that still lingers in the singer's memory. The lyrics capture the essence of a perfect night spent with a lover, and the desire to hold onto that moment forever. The song starts with the singer recalling the physical sensations of being close to their lover, even during moments of anxiety ("caught in a cold sweat"). However, the vivid memories of their partner and their laughter bring them back to a happier time where they were both young and carefree. The chorus speaks to the intoxication of being in love and the desire to stay in that state forever; the singer urges their lover to just close their eyes and stay in that moment with them.
The second verse shows the singer's vulnerability, admitting that they don't quite understand the intensity of their feelings toward their lover. They are unsure if it's pure love or just the pain of a heartbreak that's disguised itself. Despite this doubt, the singer wants to prolong the perfect moment they're experiencing, and they tell their lover to get closer to them, wanting to share the experience with them. The bridge repeats the chorus, emphasizing the need to hold onto the perfect moment they're in.
In summary, "Daydream" is a song that captures the bittersweet nostalgia of a perfect night spent with a loved one, where everything felt right, and the world seemed to stop. The singer is haunted by the memory and wants to hold onto it forever, inviting their lover to stay in that perfect moment with them.

Take in a deep breath
Let's calm down and prepare ourselves for the moment
I'm caught in a cold sweat
I'm nervous and excited at the same time
Girl, I won't forget
I will always remember you
What you look like tonight
You look beautiful tonight
I'll never get sick of the cloud nine
I will always feel happy and euphoric when I'm with you
Of hearing you laugh like
Your laughter is one of my favorite sounds
We were just eighteen
We were young and carefree when we first met
And caught up in the ride
We were swept away by our emotions
Just close your eyes
Let's focus on the moment and shut out everything else
You know you can leave if you want to
You have the freedom to go if you need to
So take your time
There's no rush, let's savor this moment
Daydreaming through the night
Let's enjoy our imaginations and fantasies together
How did you and I turn it into
I'm amazed at how we ended up where we are
A paradise
Our relationship feels like heaven
I can't explain why
I don't have words for the way I feel
You're running through my mind
I can't stop thinking about you
Is this make believe
This feels too good to be true
Or heartbreak in disguise
I'm worried that this happiness won't last
I just wanna stare at the sunrise
I want to appreciate the beauty of this moment
And kiss in the moonlight
I want to share a romantic moment with you
Girl let's make a scene
Let's do something memorable and exciting
And drive all through the night
Let's keep going and enjoy this adventure
Your head on my shoulders
Let me comfort and protect you
Just come a bit closer
Let's be even more intimate
This moment could never end
I never want this moment to end
Our lips taking over
Our kisses are becoming more intense and passionate
I'm losing composure
I'm so overwhelmed by my emotions that I'm losing control
We're falling in again
We're falling in love all over again
