[Verse 1]
Looking back through changes where we started from
Don't know about you but I knew it wasn't wrong
You know I kept a place for you in my mind
And I know you did the same 'cause you're just that kind

[Chorus]
So if we knew all along
Why did it take so long?
We've known it since we were young
So why did it take so long?
You know you make me feel loved
Make me feel like I'm home
So if we knew all along
Why did it take so long?

[Verse 2]
Moving on, you and I started looking back
Now we've got to make up for all the wasted time
You know I'd never let you just walk on by
From the day that I met you I knew you'd be mine

[Chorus]
So if we knew all along
Why did it take so long?
We've known since we were young
So why did it take so long?
You know you make me feel loved
Make me feel like I'm home
So if we knew all along
Why did it take so long?

[Bridge]
Just started, just started
I'm having trouble believing it's true
Just started, just started
Now we got nothing to prove

[Chorus]
So if we knew all along
Why did it take so long?
We've known it since we were young
So why did it take so long?
You know you make me feel loved
Make me feel like I'm home
So if we knew all along
Why did it take so long?

[Outro]
Why did it take so long?
Why did it take so long?
Why did it take so long?
Why did it take so long?

Niall James Horan (born September 13th, 1993) is an Irish singer-songwriter, musician, and founder of Modest! Golf Management company. He auditioned on The X Factor at 16 years of age as a solo act and he came to worldwide prominence when he and four other boys were joined together to form pop boy band One Direction, which became one of the biggest boy bands in the world. Since the band’s hiatus in 2015, Horan has released two solo albums, has collaborated with the likes of Maren Morris, Julia Michaels and Ashe and has created a track for animated comedy film Smallfoot.

In September 2016, it was revealed that Niall had signed a solo contract with Capitol Records.

Following this news, Horan released his debut solo single “This Town”, becoming the first One Direction member to release solo music. “This Town” showcases his songwriting skills and vocals, as Horan strips everything down to him and his guitar. In support of the single, he also uploaded a one-take acoustic version of the single. The song peaked at No. 20 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart on January 14th, 2017.
