“Don’t Wanna”, the surprise single from HAIM was dropped on May 21, 2020 on BBC Radio 1. In a conversation with Annie Mac, the sisters described the making and production of the song:
This song came out of a late night drunken jam session. We wrote it on piano, Rostam [one of the song’s co-producer...
Don’t Wanna Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ooh, yeah, you did me so bad
When I was in the moment
Well, I didn't understand
Ooh, yeah, you did me so harsh
Left me low with my high heels in the parking lot
[Pre-Chorus]
Always thought I'd see it coming (Mm)
But I don't
Gotta leave the engine running in the front seat
In my mama's winter coat
[Chorus]
I don't wanna give up on you
I don't wanna, don't wanna
I don't wanna have to
Well, we both have nights
Waking up in strangers' beds
But I don't wanna, don't wanna
I don't wanna give up yet
[Verse 2]
Ooh, yeah, it's still early days
Don't know what I mean to you
I don't know what to say
Ooh, yeah, don't walk away
Don't look at me like that 'cause my mind's 'bout to change
[Pre-Chorus]
Can't believe that I'm nervous (Mm)
Face-to-face
All our problems on the surface, is it worth this?
I don't think it's too late
[Chorus]
I don't wanna give up on you
I don't wanna, don't wanna
I don't wanna have to
Well, we both have nights
Waking up in strangers' beds
But I don't wanna, don't wanna
I don't wanna give up yet
[Bridge]
I don't wanna give up on you
I don't wanna, don't wanna
I don't wanna have to
Well, we both have nights
Waking up in strangers' beds
But I don't wanna, don't wanna
I don't wanna give up yet
[Chorus]
I don't wanna (Don't wanna)
Give up on you
I don't wanna, don't wanna (Don't wanna)
I don't wanna have to
Well, we both have nights (Don't wanna)
Waking up in strangers' beds
But I don't wanna, don't wanna (Don't wanna)
I don't wanna give up yet
[Chorus]
I don't wanna (Don't wanna)
Give up on you
I don't wanna, don't wanna (Don't wanna)
I don't wanna have to
Well, we both have nights (Don't wanna)
Waking up in strangers' beds (Don't wanna)
But I don't wanna, don't wanna (Don't wanna)
I don't wanna give up yet (Don't wanna)
[Outro]
I don't wanna (Don't wanna)
Give up on you (Don't wanna)
I don't wanna, don't wanna (Don't wanna)
I don't wanna have to (Don't wanna)
Well, we both have nights (Don't wanna)
Waking up in strangers' beds (Don't wanna)
But I don't wanna, don't wanna (Don't wanna)
I don't wanna give up (Don't wanna)

What did HAIM say about "Don't Wanna"?
I think this is classic HAIM.

We can tinker around with a song fo...
