[Intro]
Don’t let it go away
This feeling has got to stay
Don’t let it go away
This feeling has got to stay
And I can’t believe I’ve had this chance now
Don’t let it go away

[Verse 1]
New, you’re so new
You, you’re new
And I never had this taste in the past
New, you’re so new

[Verse 2]
My normal hesitation is gone
And I really gravitate to your will
Are you here to fetch me out?
‘Cause I’ve never had this taste in my mouth

[Verse 3]
Oh you’re not old
And you’re not familiar
Recently discovered and I’m learning about you

New, you’re so new
You, you’re new

And you’re consuming me violently
And your reverence shamelessly tempting me
Who sent this maniac?
‘Cause I never had this taste in the past

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh you’re different, you’re different from the former
Like a fresh battery, I’m energized by you

[Chorus]
Don’t let it go away
This feeling has got to stay
Don’t let it go away
This feeling has got to stay

[Post Chorus]
And I can’t believe I’ve had this chance now
Don’t let it go away

Why am I so curious?
This territory is dangerous
I’ll probably end up at the start
I’ll be back in line with my broken heart

New, you’re so new
You, you’re new
And I never had this taste in the past

[Chorus]
Don’t let it go away
This feeling has got to stay
Don’t let it go away
This feeling has got to stay

[Post Chorus]
And I can’t believe I’ve had this chance now
Don’t let it go away

[Outro]
And I can’t believe it
Can’t believe it, can’t believe it, can’t believe it
Don’t let it go away, this feeling has got to stay
Don’t let it go away

No Doubt

No Doubt formed in Anaheim, California in 1986. They have created a decade-defining style and have arguably become one of the most recognized bands of their time. The band has consisted of vocalist and frontwoman Gwen Stefani, guitarist Tom Dumont, bassist Tony Kanal, and drummer Adrian Young, as well as several former members—including Gwen’s older brother Eric Stefani.

They found mainstream success following the release of their third studio album Tragic Kingdom in late 1995. It eventually landed at the top of the Billboard charts in 1996, and has sold over 8 million copies as of 2012.
