It’s no surprise Hailee got Anderson to hop on the track, both of them were raised on California, which was a big influence for the record, Hailee states.
She started teasing the song back in April 2022, posting a snippet of the beggining of it on Twitter and a pre-save link with the name of the track. On July 22 2022, she announced the release date and teased the feature saying the following:
"If you’ve been with me for a while you know this has been a long time coming. If you’re new here… I’m about to release my first song in over a year with one of my favorite artists/someone I’m lucky to call a friend. He’s so sick!! And so is the song!! Bet!!!!"
The day after, she finally unveiled the cover art for the single asbwell as announcing Anderson .Paak as the feature.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're the wave upon the ocean
Poundin' rhythm and motion
It's a full moon kind of night, yeah
I don't wanna go home yet
You can question my devotion
Wear my heart on my shoulder
(Ah)
Baby, all I wanna do is coast (coast)
With you (with you)
Energy, the body flows
(Ah)
Baby, all I wanna do is coast (coast)
With you (with you)
Frequency of all we know (uh)
Feelin' like I caught a wave with ya
I been dealin' with a lot of changes
And all the people that I like to hang with
They all been sayin' that I ain't the same
Listen, I been chillin' with you for a couple days
If you ain't afraid, me and you should rage (hey)
In the sun rays, come on out the cage
Don't wanna tame, live it your way (hey)
Body go for days, got me in a daze
Parties in LA feel like holidays
Hit the PCH and we on the way
To a place I was born and raised
You live on the screen and the stage
I wanna fit in between your legs
Let's pick a day, everything could wait
Words can't relate, but it's givin' fate
(Ah)
Baby, all I wanna do is coast (coast)
With you (with you)
Energy, the body flows
(Ah)
Baby, all I wanna do is coast (coast)
With you (with you)

'Cause nothin' feels as real when we're connected
Relax and let the riptide pull you close
(Ah)
Baby, all I wanna do is coast (coast)

The stars come down, you drown 'em out
I'm sinkin' deeper into you
I'll breathe you in, I'll breathe you out
I'm sinkin' deeper into (hey)
