touch and go
She Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you take my hand,
It will leave you with one.

Det är så skönt här, det är så svalt.
Vi kanske borde åka nånstans, ta en lång semester.
(It feels so great here, so cool...
maybe we could take a vacation?
somewhere far?)

I feel the bass

Ready?

I don't know what it is, but my mike's just really messed up;
I tried to fix it, but... it doesn't fix.






*interspersed with "Get with this"*

Overall Meaning

The song "Touch and Go" by She's is a reflective piece on the fleeting nature of relationships. The opening lines, "When you take my hand, it will leave you with one," suggest that even though the touch may feel intimate and promising, it may ultimately lead to solitude. The rest of the lyrics speak of a desire for escape, for a break from the monotony of life. The lines, "It feels so great here, so cool...maybe we could take a vacation? somewhere far?" paint a picture of someone longing to be somewhere else, but unsure of where that place might be. The lyrics suggest that perhaps the solution to the sense of boredom and stagnation is to simply pick up and go, to seek out new experiences and new relationships.


The song is further characterized by its haunting instrumentation, with a steady bassline and dreamy synths. The haunting and ethereal qualities of the music, coupled with the introspective lyrics, create a sense of longing and melancholy. Ultimately, the song leaves the listener with the sense that even though relationships may be touch and go, it is important to keep searching for connection and new experiences.
