Touch
Kehlani Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your kisses feel like home
With you I never rush
But this ain't no stupid crush
We don't even need to talk about it
More love, less talk, more love
We don't even need to talk about it
I like it when we talk
But I love it when we touch
I love it when we touch
A little bit too much
I love it when we, when we, when we
I love it when we
There's magic in your hands
Ooh, you got me in a trance
Your love is like a wind
Dancing across my skin
We don't even need to talk about it
More love, less talk, more love
We don't even need to talk about it
I like it when we talk
But I love it when we touch
I love it when we touch
A little bit too much
I love it when we, when we, when we
I love it when we
We don't even have to say a word
Won't bite, no, I won't hurt
Speak less and you may learn to feel me, yeah
Baby, yeah
I like it when we talk
But I love it when we touch
I love it when we touch
A little bit too much
I love it when we, when we, when we
I love it when we
Kehlani's song "Touch" is an ode to the electric chemistry and physical connection that two people can share. The opening lines of "I feel you in my bones, your kisses feel like home" evoke a sense of comfort and belonging that comes from being with someone who understands you on a deep level. The singer enjoys talking with their lover, but they find that their shared physical experiences are more powerful than words. The repeated phrase "more love, less talk" reinforces the idea that actions speak louder than words.
The chorus of the song is where Kehlani really drives home the importance of touch in a relationship. She sings, "I love it when we touch, a little bit too much." This line encapsulates the intensity of the emotional and physical connection between the two people in the song. The bridge of the song switches up the melody and rhythm, highlighting the hypnotic and trance-like feeling that comes from being with someone who knows your body and soul.
Overall, "Touch" is a sensual and honest expression of the power of physical intimacy in a relationship. Kehlani's vocals float over the dreamy production, creating a soundscape that perfectly captures the feeling of being lost in someone else's touch.
