Lyrics
Just another daydream
Reflects a common occurrence, nothing extraordinary
Just another day
Similar to the previous line, just another typical day
Just another hopeful passing thought
A fleeting optimistic idea that entered the mind
That crept into my brain
Entered the consciousness quietly
In the dream there's a stranger
In the daydream, an unfamiliar person is present
But I can't place the name
The person's identity is not recognized
It all seems so familiar
A sense of familiarity despite the unknown
As I turn to you and say
Addressing someone, conveying a feeling of recognition
Hey, you're a little late
Noticed delay in arrival, but acceptance without complaint
But I guess I can't complain
Acknowledges the delay but maintains contentment
Yeah, it was worth the wait
Implies that the awaited arrival was valuable
And I hope you feel the same
Desires mutual satisfaction in the meeting
'Cause these days
Currently experiencing a period, unspecified duration
I'm counting all the ways
Enumerating the positive impact of the person's presence
You fill the empty spaces
How the person occupies the mind, figuratively
In the corners of my brain
Where the person fits in the speaker's thoughts
And someday
Referring to an undetermined future
We'll reflect upon today
An anticipation of reminiscing about the present time
And with a smile we'll say
Anticipating fond recollection of the current state
I'm not sure where I was without you
Uncertainty about life before the person's presence
But I'm never going back again
Firm decision not to return to a previous state of being
Hey, you're a little late
Reiteration of earlier delayed arrival, same sentiment
But I guess I can't complain
Reaffirmation of contentment despite the delay
Yeah, it was worth the wait
Emphasizing the value of the wait
And I hope you feel the same
Desiring mutual satisfaction in the meeting (repeated)
'Cause these days
Continuation of the ongoing period
I'm counting all the ways
Enumerating the impact of the person's presence (repeated)
You fill the empty spaces
Where the person occupies the speaker's thoughts (repeated)
In the corners of my brain
Continuing the anticipation of reminiscing
And someday
Future reflection on the present state (repeated)
We'll reflect upon today
Anticipating fond recollection of the current state (repeated)
And with a smile we'll say
Expectation of future positive reflection
Hey, you're a little late
Repetition of earlier delayed arrival, same sentiment
But I guess I can't complain
Acceptance of delay without complaint (repeated)
You were worth the wait
Emphasizing the value of the waited arrival
And I know you feel the same
Desiring mutual satisfaction in the meeting (repeated)
But these days
Continuing the ongoing period
As long as I'm awake
Expressing the constant awareness and appreciation
I'm counting all the spaces in my brain
Focusing on the mental space occupied by thoughts of the person
I'm not sure where I am without you
Uncertainty about previous state without the person
But I'm never coming back
Firm decision not to return to a previous state of being (repeated)
And I know I haven't met you
Statement about not having encountered the person yet
But I'm never coming back
Reaffirmation of the decision not to return to the previous state
Here again
Expression of not revisiting a specific state or situation
