This song reminds me of a relationship (if you could call it that) long ago. He wanted to go out and party all weekend and I would shadow him, just to be near him. We'd fall asleep in the early morning hours and sleep off our hangovers all day. I'd often wake up before him and just watch him, memorizing the freckles on his back as he slept. If it was up to me I wouldn't spend all day in bed but wasting daylight with him was ok. It was the only time I could pretend we were truly together. I understand these lyrics perfectly. They aren't sweet and romantic. They are bittersweet and sad. The day is wasted but she's ok because that's the only time they get together.
