Avicii The Nights Lyrics

[00:02.84] Once upon a younger year,

[00:04.35] When all our shadows disappeared,

[00:06.10] The animals inside came out to play.

[00:10.37] Went face to face with all our fears,

[00:12.12] Learned our lessons through the tears,

[00:13.87] Made memories we knew would never fade.

[00:17.39] One day my father—he told me,

[00:19.14] "Son, don't let it slip away."

[00:21.65] He took me in his arms, I heard him say,

[00:24.91] "When you get older

[00:26.16] Your wild heart will live for younger days.

[00:28.92] Think of me if ever you're afraid."

[00:32.43] He said, "One day you'll leave this world behind.

[00:36.19] So, live a life you will remember."

[00:40.21] My father told me when I was just a child,

[00:43.97] "These are the nights that never die."

[00:47.23] My father told me,

[01:19.11] "When thunder clouds start pouring down

[01:20.62] Light a fire they can't put out,

[01:22.62] Carve your name into those shining stars."

[01:25.89] He said, "Go venture far beyond the shores.

[01:27.63] Don't forsake this life of yours.

[01:30.15] I'll guide you home no matter where you are."

[01:33.66] One day my father—he told me,

[01:35.42] "Son, don't let it slip away."

[01:37.92] When I was just a kid I heard him say,

[01:41.19] "When you get older

[01:42.44] Your wild heart will live for younger days.

[01:45.20] Think of me if ever you're afraid."

[01:52.47] He said, "One day you'll leave this world behind.

[01:52.97] So, live a life you will remember."

[01:56.24] My father told me when I was just a child

[02:00.00] "These are the nights that never die."

[02:03.26] My father told me,

[02:15.55] "These are the nights that never die."

[02:18.56] My father told me.

[02:49.41] My father told me.
