"Daydreamer" is a song by the American singer David Cassidy.

Written by Terry Dempsey and produced by Rick Jarrard, "Daydreamer" was Cassidy's second and final No.1 single in the UK Singles Chart, spending three weeks at the top of the chart in October and November 1973. The song was a double-A side with a cover version of Harry Nilsson's "The Puppy Song" on the B-side. The single was the 10th best selling single in the UK in 1973.

The song also appears on David Cassidy's 1973 UK No.1 album Dreams Are Nuthin' More Than Wishes.

Cilla Black recorded a version of this song in 1974.

The song's only chart appearance in the U.S. was by Gino Cunico in 1976 on Arista Records. This cover, which hit No.43 on the Billboard Easy Listening chart, adds a bridge repeating the phrase "ain't that a shame", echoing the lyrical variation introduced by Cilla Black in her 1974 treatment of the song.
