I want to write you a song
One as beautiful as you are sweet
With just a hint of pain
For the feeling that I get when you are gone
I want to write you a song

[Liam:]
I want to lend you my coat
One that's as soft as your cheek
So when...

   I think the boys wrote it so we could remember them (so anytime I am gone you can listen to my voice and sing along).

   i think this song is about louis and harry. before you dismiss this idea and scroll past here me out.
   -the two of them are constantly forced to be separated, atleast in the public eye, which from most of the lines you can see its written to someone they are forced to be away from.
   "With just a hint of pain, for the feeling that I get when you are gone..."
   "So any time I'm gone..."
   -the two of them have had shared coats they've been photographed wearing (you can find this online trust me).
   "I wanna lend you my coat..."
   -harry's boat tattoo and louis' complimentary compass and anchor.
   "I wanna build you a boat..."
   -the lack of gender specificity in this song.
   keep in mind this is all speculation, i do not know their lives and what they do behind closed doors but from my personal perspective, this is how i see it.

   It's about a boy who wants to write a song to his girl for her to know how special she is for him
