Lagu itu menjadi singel ketiga dari album tersebut, sebelumnya Sabrina telah merilis dua, "Please, Please, Please" dan "Espresso".
Lagu "Taste" ditulis oleh Sabrina Carpenter, John Ryan, Julia Michaels, Amy Allen, dan Ian Kirkpatrick. Lirik lagu itu seperti fantasi seorang pria bahwa kisah cinta singkatnya akan tetap berefek ke dalam pikiran mantan kekasihnya, meskipun perempuan itu sudah kembali bersama pria sebelum dirinya.
Lirik lagu "Taste" sebagai berikut:
(Rock-a-bye baby)
(Snug in your bed)
(Right now you are sleeping)
(And soon you'll be dead)
Oh I leave quite an impression
Five feet to be exact
You’re wondering why half his clothes went missing
My bodies where they’re at
Now I’m gone but you’re still layin’
Next to me
One degree of separation
(I) Heard you’re back together and if that’s true
You’ll just have to taste me when he’s kissing you
If you want forever and I bet you do
Just know you’ll
Taste me
Too
Uh huh
He pins you down on the carpet
Makes paintings with his tongue
(La la la la la la la)
He’s funny now all his jokes hit different
Guess who he learned that from
Now I’m gone but you’re still layin’
Next to me
One degree of separation
(I) Heard you’re back together and if that’s true
You’ll just have to taste me when he’s kissing you
If you want forever and I bet you do
Just know you’ll
Taste me
Too
(La la la la la la la)
Every time you close your eyes
And feel his lips you’re feelin’ mine
And every time you breathe his air
Just know I was already there
You can have him if you like
I’ve been there done that once or twice
And singin’ ‘bout it don’t mean I care
Yeah I know I’ve been known to share
Well I heard you’re back together and if that’s true
You’ll just have to taste me when he’s kissing you
If you want forever and I bet you do
Just know you’ll
Taste me
Too
Taste me too
(La la la la la la la)
You’ll just have to taste me when he’s kissing you
You’ll just have to taste me when he’s kissing you
