The song is about Harry Styles who Halsey had a crush on in 2012 before she was famous.[1] The song followed the release of "The Haylor Song", a parody song about the relationship of Taylor Swift and Harry Styles, on her discontinued Tumblr account se7enteenblack for which she has since apologized.[2]

Lyrics[]

[Verse 1]
Clutching the steering wheel and crying aloud
But your voice on the airwaves drowns me out
Crazy to think that since five AM all I see is green eyes and I'm lost in them and
I get it she's tall and she's pretty and blonde and she can write one hell of a break up song but
She'll never love you like I could

[Chorus]
Now I wonder what it's like to run my fingers through your hair
But I'll never know
And I wonder what it's like to come home late and have you there
But I'll never know
And I've memorized every line on your fingertips
And I've fantasized 'bout what it's like to say goodnight to your kiss

[Verse 2]
And it's crazy to think that I've given up hope
And I've sunken the ships, somebody throw me the rope
It's getting too late to be seeing your face
And I'm dreaming of the ways that you probably taste
The dimples on your cheeks, yeah, they swallow me up
And I'm lost on your body because you're making it rough
Tracing the ink on your skin in my mind
Well, your girls got an album that is better than mine

[Chorus]
Now I wonder what it's like to run my fingers through your hair
But I'll never know
And I wonder what it's like to come home late and have you there
But I'll never know
And I've memorized every line on your fingertips
And I've fantasized 'bout what it's like to say goodnight to your kiss

[Bridge]
And you said you'd be back for me
Love the dimples in my back for me
And I believed it's true
And if you do all that for me
At the very least I'd have to be writing this one for you

[Chorus]
Now I wonder what it's like to run my fingers through your hair
But I'll never know
And I wonder what it's like to come home late and have you there
But I'll never know
And I've memorized every line on your fingertips
And I've fantasized 'bout what it's like to say goodnight to your kiss

[Outro]
She'll never love you like I could
She'll never love you like I could
