As the split title indicates, this is probably two songs that Russell combined: "That's Us" and "Wild Combination."
"Wild Combination" is just a love song. We could spend all day speculating about the meanings of specific lines but anyone can get the gist ("I just wanna be wherever you are").
I suspect that "That's Us" on the other hand, is mostly someone going through a stack of photographs or narrating a slideshow of vacation photos ("That's us before we got there", "That's you in the pool"). Russell refers to a self-timer (as in a self-timer on a camera that allows you to pose before the shutter goes off) and gas mileage. Swimming, surfing, leaving early to beat the traffic, smiling for the camera - sounds like a vacation to me.

@vgnslprcll89 wow, this is a great interpretation. I never thought of it like that, but it makes a lot of sense. Such an amazing song.
