Touch
Dabin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lay back pretending
Thinking we're only friends
You know by now
Baby it all begins
That lonely touching
Everything starts to spin
Starts to spin
Taking over it all again
Hands scarred, forgetting
Filling the spaces thin
Don't turn back now
Baby it all begins
Caught in the rushing
Everything starts to spin
Start to spin
You know by now
Baby it all begins
Baby it all begins
The lyrics to Dabin's song Touch featuring Daniela Andrade describe the narrative of two individuals who are trying to resist their intense romantic feelings for each other. The singer is aware of the danger and implications of crossing the line and chooses to lay back and pretend that their relationship is only platonic. However, the touching between them slowly intensifies, and everything around them starts to spin out of control. The singer acknowledges that they are caught up in the moment, and no matter how hard they try to forget the situation or fill the spaces, the intensity of their feelings only grows stronger.
The lyrics evoke a sense of longing and desire that builds up slowly until it becomes almost impossible to contain. The track's emotion is conveyed through Andrade's dreamy and soft vocal delivery which contrasts with Dabin's intricate production style. The sound is heavily influenced by electronic dance music, which adds to the track's euphoric and electrifying vibe.
Overall, "Touch" is a song about the intricacies of desire and the tension between resisting and giving in to temptation. It is a portrayal of the complex emotions that arise when two individuals navigate romantic feelings for each other.
