Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wish you would say somethin' to make me change my mind
Got me feelin' like somebody else
I been so patient with you but you won't act right
And I'm tired of sleepin' by myself
What is we on? Boy, somethin' is wrong
Show me you want me too, mmh
Checkin' my phone every ten minutes
Thinkin' it's gon' be you, hmm

I just wanna fix this, but you don't wanna try
If you don't wanna be, why you always on my line?
Puttin' your peace over mine
Meet me in the middle

(Mmh)
Touch and go (mhm)
(Mmh)
Touch and go (mhm)
I'm too emotional (mmh)
Touch and go (mhm)
I'm too emotional (mhm)
Touch and go (mhm)
I'm too emotional

I been in touch with myself lately, I been kickin' it back
But you're workin' me so hard, I swear it's killin' me, yeah
Why we talk the most anytime we lay down in the bed?
Good head make you forget what you said
I been tryin' take it there, but make it clear, uh
You been fuckin' many weirdos, I'ma kill bruh
Sike, I'm playin'
I know it's been bad
It's been touch and go
It's been 'round and 'round
It's been loop-de-loop
We been here before

I just wanna fix this, but you don't wanna try
If you don't wanna be, why you always on my line?
Puttin' your peace over mine
Meet me in the middle

(Mmh)
Touch and go, oh, oh (mhm)
(Mmh)
Touch and go (mhm)
I'm too emotional (mmh)
Touch and go (mhm)
I'm too emotional (mhm)
Touch and go (mhm)
I'm too emotional

Baby, do you hear me?
Tell me you still see me
All I know is
I just need to know if you still need me
Baby, do you hear me?
Tell me you still see me
I just need to
Have you closer every time you're near me

(Mmh)
Touch and go (mhm)
(Mmh)
Touch and go (mhm)
I'm too emotional (mmh)
Touch and go (mhm)
I'm too emotional (mhm)




Touch and go (mhm)
I'm too emotional

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Tinashe & 6LACK's song Touch & Go explore the feelings of confusion and frustration in a relationship where one partner seems to be distant and unresponsive. The first verse is a plea for the other person to show their interest and commitment to the relationship, as the singer feels like they are not being reciprocated. The line "Wish you would say somethin' to make me change my mind" expresses the desire for the other person to make them believe in the relationship again. However, the singer feels like they are someone else entirely and tired of being alone. The chorus "Touch and go" repeats this state of uncertainty and inconsistency in the relationship, which makes the singer feel too emotional and confused.


The second verse adds more details to the situation, as the singer talks about how they have been "kicking it back" and taking care of themselves but still feel overworked by their partner. The line "Good head makes you forget what you said" shows how physical intimacy can create confusion and mess with communication. The singer tries to make their intentions clear, but it seems like the other person has been involved with other people, which makes them jealous and uncertain. The bridge and last chorus are once again a plea for communication and reassurance, with the singer trying to see if the other person still needs them and wants to be together.


Overall, the lyrics to Touch & Go are a reflection of the ups and downs of a complicated relationship, where one partner is not fully invested, creating feelings of confusion, frustration, and uncertainty.
