Nouvelles Aventures

Strung out in the witching hour
Dead bored, I had to call you
Beyond reason now feel the power
Breathe deep, let me show you

Head back, arms open wide
Black hearts, gonna miss you
You saved my life in another time
For real, over and over

You’re rushing in my blood
Come on baby you’re the only one, let’s do it
Do it right

Nouvelles Aventures, come alive
Nouvelles Aventures, make the time
Nouvelles Aventures, open wide
Nouvelles Aventures

You spat a drink in another girls face
Oh yeah, I wanna know you
Turn heads all over the place
Down the street I gotta own you

Flip the table in a restaurant
So what I can’t control you
Dominate, she can do no wrong
Come on let me tell you

Lord knows where you’re from
Come on baby you’re the only one, let’s do it
Do it right

Nouvelles Aventures, come alive
Nouvelles Aventures, make the time
Nouvelles Aventures, open wide
Nouvelles Aventures

The old ways are dying
Don’t feel or you must change
Our wake under surveillance
In a sense of the unexplained

Nouvelles Aventures, pushing forward
Nouvelles Aventures, through the unkown
Nouvelles Aventures, take our chances
Nouvelles Aventures, make the time

Banished from the kingdom
Tearing up the fabric of time
Keep distance from the present
Bored of the neon fights

Nouvelles Aventures, machiavellian
Nouvelles Aventures, existential
Nouvelles Aventures, premonition
Nouvelles Aventures, I’ll make you mine

Head back, arms open wide
Black hearts, gonna miss you
Nouvelles Aventures
Nouvelles Aventures

Head back, arms open wide
Breathe deep, let me show you
Nouvelles Aventures
Nouvelles Aventures
