Songfacts®:

  • This acoustically-driven ballad finds the One Direction boys in love. "I wanna be last, yeah," they croon. "Baby let me be your, let me be your last first kiss. I wanna be first, yeah. Wanna be the first to take it all the way like this." 1D's Niall Horan has said this is his favourite cut off Take Me Home.
  • The 1D boys get songwriting co-credit on this tune, one of three tracks on Take Me Home that they co-wrote ("Back For You" and "Summer Love" are the other ones).
