FINNEAS steps into the spotlight with Palomino, his tender new single from the Nobody Wants This Season 2 soundtrack, out now via Interscope Records ahead of the full album drop on October 23.
Tied to the Netflix rom-com’s second season starring Kristen Bell and Drew Tarver in that messy, heartfelt interfaith love story, this track captures the quiet pull of what-ifs and almosts, all wrapped in FINNEAS’s signature soft-rock glow. He debuted it live at Austin City Limits back in August, giving fans a sneak peek that had everyone hooked before the official release.
The verses paint these intimate snapshots: “My dirty secret in an old coat pocket / My dirty laundry underneath your bed,” leading into dreams of domestic what-could-bes that stick around too long. Then comes the chorus, simple and stinging “If I want to / If I have you on my mind / If I’m patient / If it’s complicated, then it’s complicated” mirroring the show’s theme of tangled feelings worth the wait. It’s got that FINNEAS touch, blending acoustic warmth with electronic whispers, much like his work on Billie Eilish tracks but standing solo here.
With the soundtrack stacking contributions from Selena Gomez, Chris Stapleton, and Teddy Swims, Palomino sets a reflective tone for the season’s drama. Streams are climbing fast, and X is full of clips from the show tying the lyrics to key scenes, calling it the perfect earworm for late-night overthinking. If you’re binging the episodes or just chasing that emotional hit, this one’s got staying power.
Dive into the PALOMINO lyrics below and unpack its lingering ache. Don’t miss other Nobody Wants This Season 2 tracks for more of FINNEAS’s heartfelt sound.
Lyrics of Palomino by FINNEAS
[Verse 1]
My Dirty Secret In An Old Coat Pocket
My Dirty Laundry Underneath Your Bed
I Had A Dream I Had You In My Kitchen
And Now You’re In My Head, You’re Living In My Head
Hey
[Verse 2]
A Palomino In A Midland Accent
I Wasn’t Wild, But I Could Have Been
I Like The Way You Answer All My Questions
Can I See You Again? Can I See You Again?
[Chorus]
If I Want To
If I Have You On My Mind
If I’m Patient
If It’s Complicated, Then It’s Complicated
[Verse 3]
I Toss And Turn Until I Sweat My Clothes Off
I Walk Beneath The Low Winter Sun
I Like The Way You Say You Say, “No”, So Often
You Could Have Anyone, You Could Have Anyone
[Chorus]
If You Want To
If You Have Me On Your Mind
If You’re Patient
If It’s Complicated, Then It’s Complicated
[Bridge]
It’s A Good Time ’til You Overdo It
Kiss Me Goodbye Like There’s Nothing To It
It’s A Good Time ’til You Overdo It
Kiss Me Goodbye, Kiss Me Goodbye
[Chorus]
If You Want To
You Could Have Me All The Time
If You’re Patient
If It’s Complicated, Then It’s Complicated
Then It’s Complicated, Then It’s Complicated
[Outro]
My Dirty Secret In A Cheap, White Dresser
I Kept My Promise In A Neon Glow
I Shoulda Known That You Were Out There Somewhere
If I Could Let You Go, I Would’ve Let You Go
