Justin Bieber’s 2025 single “Daisies” is a heartfelt exploration of love, longing, and vulnerability, featured as the lead track on his album Swag. The song draws inspiration from Bieber’s relationship with his wife, Hailey Bieber, and centers on how couples cope with distance, doubt, and the ongoing effort to nurture genuine connection. Bieber uses the metaphor of “throwin’ petals like, ‘Do you love me or not?’”—a nod to the classic childhood game—to express his uncertainty and hope about love’s resilience.
Musically, “Daisies” combines alternative pop with lo-fi guitar and smooth R&B vocals, setting an intimate and raw tone. The lyrics highlight both the insecurity and the unwavering commitment in his relationship. Bieber sings about the tension of digital communication—reading into dots and messages left on read—while affirming patience and trust. These references evoke the modern challenges of love in a digital world and showcase his vulnerability as he counts the days until reunion. The song resonates widely, not just as a pop ballad, but as a personal diary entry on handling fame, romance, and the genuine struggles of marriage.
Lyrics: “Daisies” by Justin Bieber
Throwin’ petals like, “Do you love me or not?”
Head is spinnin’ and it don’t know when to stop
You said “Forever,” babe, did you mean it or not?
Hold on, hold on
You leave me on read, babe, but I still get the message
Instead of a line, it’s three dots, but I can connect them
And if it ain’t right, babe, you know I respect it
But if you need time, just take your time
Honey, I get it, I get it, I get it
The way you got me all in my head
Think I’d rather you in my bed
Whatever it is, you know I can take it
Countin’ the days How many days ‘Til I can see you again
Blowin’ kisses like, “Will you catch ’em or not?”
I’m Cupid with arrows, babe, I’m just shootin’ my shot (mmm)
If you could get in, drop me a pin
Hop in a whip and come over
Don’t wanna be friends, just skin to skin
I wanna get closer and closer and closer, uh
[Chorus repeats]
(You got me all, all, all in my head…)
“Daisies” stands out for its emotional honesty, spotlighting the everyday realities behind fairy-tale romance. It captures the delicate balance of love and doubt, celebrating both vulnerability and strength in modern relationships.
