This is the first NURVIS song. The idea was from a song I wrote in 1989. That version had lyrics and vocals by my sister, Julie. When NURVIS was formed, I re-did the music, and Susan added some of her own lyrics and vocal melody ideas.

Artist picture
Electronic experimental darkwave synthpop - sometimes dark, sometimes dance, sometimes something else.
Sort of Erasure / New Order (musically) but with female vocals - ranging from sweet to angry. Best described as darkwave/synthpop with a twisted lyrical edge. The music of NURVIS combines 80's and 90's influences with contemporary electronic styles. In other words, NURVIS try to embrace those things from the past that got them into music, yet incorporate new sounds and new ideas to create something original and timely.

Story behind the song
Musically, it's based on a synthpop song I wrote in 1989 with my sister Julie. Updated, with new musical as well as lyrical content, it tells the story of the infatuation and excitment of the first time you meet someone you know you'd like to be with.
Lyrics
Late on a Friday night, I walk in through the door Familiar faces there, voices I've heard before As I reach out my hand, and turn to say hello I feel your eyes on me and I know, I don't want you to go Running behind the trees, we're hiding from the light, that's shining on the moon, and lighting up the night Then when our fingers clasp, I feel the walls collapse Oh I can't take no more, but I don't want to close the door Eyes so warm, I've never seen before I want to see again, it's too much to pretend So turn the red lights off, and send the guards away You hold the stars for me - inside your eyes I want to stay ...Inside your eyes... ...Ooooooooh... ...I want to run and hide with you... ...I can't turn away... Only want to be with you Tell me that you will be true Tell me that you will be mine Want to run and hide with you Need your love to get me through Need to have you here with me Come on let me hide with you Promise that I will be true Giving all my love to you Only want to be with you Tell me that you will be true Only want to be with you When I look in your eyes You make me scared inside But I can't turn away Come on let's dance a while Just, hold me in your smile...
