Lyrics
Tame Impala sounds so much better when you're high
Tame Impala's music is more enjoyable when under the influence of drugs.
That's what she said when she asked me for a light
A person expressed that music is more enjoyable when high and asked for a light, potentially for a cigarette.
Exhaled some smoke and got lost in her eyes
After exhaling smoke, the speaker became captivated by the person's eyes.
Her speckled face, gin and juice on a Tuesday night
The person's face has distinct markings, and they are drinking gin and juice on a Tuesday night.
The silhouette of that dress is a blessing to the eye
The shape of the dress the person is wearing is visually pleasing.
Think I'm just drunk, but if she kissed me I wouldn't think twice

I'm missing someone who isn't even real

I miss how lucid dreams about her made me feel

But I don't wanna tell nobody
The speaker doesn't want to share their feelings about missing this nonexistent person with anyone.
Beat-up shoes, baggy jeans that were hand-me-downs

I hate cigarettes unless they're resting in her mouth
The speaker dislikes cigarettes except when the person they're missing is smoking.
The air's too clean when she's not around

Oh I'm missing someone who isn't even real

I miss how lucid dreams about her made me feel

But I don't wanna tell nobody

But I don't wanna tell nobody

And I miss her fingers tracing my spine
