In this portion of the documentary One of My Kind guitarist Taylor Hollingsworth explains the thought that went into writing the song:

[Verse 1]
I want to sleep on the air mattress with you
And let the air leak out, what would I do?
And as we sleep our bodies slowly meet
I can feel it when your heart beats, I do
[Chorus]
The air mattress with you
(Can I sleep on)
The air mattress with you?
[Verse 2]
It's under covers where it all begins
And we pretend that we are just friends
But when the others fall asleep, it ends
We become lovers once again, we do
[Chorus]
The air mattress with you
(Can I sleep on)
The air mattress with you?
(Can I sleep on)
The air mattress with you?
(Can I sleep on)
The air mattress with you?
[Verse 3]
My dreams, they have a holiday
My limbs, they twist the night away
And even if I stay away
I still get rest for hours
I still get rest for hours
I still get rest for hours
[Verse 4]
And even if there was a king-size bed
Where I can stretch my legs and lie my head
All by myself, in the darkest room
Just know that no matter what the options are, I choose
[Chorus]
The air mattress with you
(Can I sleep on)
The air mattress with you?
(Can I sleep on)
The air mattress with you?
(Can I sleep on)
The air mattress with you?
