Don't You Want Me (feat. The Weather Station) Lyrics

You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
When I met you. I picked you out
I shook you up
And turned you around
Turned you into someone new.
Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet
Success has been so easy for you.
But don't forget it's me who put you where you are now
And I can put you back down too


Don't
Don't you want me?
You know I don't believe it
When I see that you don't need me
Don't
Don't you want me?
You know can't believe you
When you say that you won't see me
Now I wait to find
When you think you've changed your mind
You'd better change it back or we will both be sorry.

Don't you want me baby?
Don't you want me, oh?
Don't you want me baby?
Don't you want me, oh?

I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
That much is true.
But even then I knew I'd find a much better place
Either with or without you.
The five years we have had have been such good times
I still love you.
But now I think it's time I live my life on my own
I guess it's just what I must do

Don't
Don't you want me?
You know I can't believe it
When you say that you won't see me
Don't
Don't you want me?
You know I don't believe you
When you say that you don't need me
Now I wait to find
You've changed your mind
You'd better change it back or we will both be sorry.

Don't you want me baby?
Don't you want me, oh?
Don't you want me baby?
Don't you want me, oh?

Don't you want me baby?
Don't you want me, oh?
Don't you want me baby?
Don't you want me, oh?

Afie Jurvanen isn’t from the Bahamas. He’s a Finnish-Canadian from Barrie--a working class town in rural Ontario. But his chosen epithet is fitting. Since 2009 he’s been making music under the name Bahamas--writing songs about sunsets, love affairs, and making out with crooked smiles. Through simple arrangements, he charts an escape route from the snow belt to the coral reefs. His new album, Barchords, was released in 2012 to critical praise:

"Barchords is a gorgeous, full-bodied recording that revels in spare but intensely flavorful textures. It’s that delightfully rare kind of record that commands an instant replay."
- Los Angeles Times

“A reserved yet melodically rewarding exploration of relationships and heartache.”
– The New Yorker

"A sublime, incomparable leading man, one with a soulful, sweet and stylish touch in his song-writing."
- Globe and Mail

“Barchords is a work of impeccably concise and considered songcraft.”
