Avicii - The Nights my father told me

[00:03.01] Hey, once upon a younger year

[00:04.35] When all our shadows disappeared

[00:06.20] The animals inside came out to play

[00:09.92] Hey, when face to face with all our fears

[00:11.78] Learned our lessons through the tears

[00:13.90] Made memories we knew would never fade

[00:17.36] One day my father—he told me,

[00:19.49] "Son, don't let it slip away"

[00:21.61] He took me in his arms, I heard him say,

[00:25.06] "When you get older

[00:26.39] Your wild life will live for younger days

[00:29.31] Think of me if ever you're afraid."

[00:32.50] He said, "One day you'll leave this world behind

[00:35.96] So live a life you will remember."

[00:39.93] My father told me when I was just a child

[00:43.92] These are the nights that never die

[00:47.64] My father told me

[01:18.98] When thunder clouds start pouring down

[01:20.84] Light a fire they can't put out

[01:22.71] Carve your name into those shinning stars

[01:25.91] He said, "Go venture far beyond the shores.

[01:28.30] Don't forsake this life of yours.

[01:30.42] I'll guide you home no matter where you are."

[01:33.61] One day my father—he told me,

[01:35.73] "Son, don't let it slip away."

[01:37.86] When I was just a kid I heard him say,

[01:41.31] "When you get older

[01:42.64] Your wild life will live for younger days

[01:45.56] Think of me if ever you're afraid."

[01:48.75] He said, "One day you'll leave this world behind

[01:52.48] So live a life you will remember."

[01:56.45] My father told me when I was just a child

[02:00.17] These are the nights that never die

[02:03.89] My father told me

[02:17.44] These are the nights that never die

[02:19.03] My father told me
