The Nights Lyrics by Avicii

0:03Once upon a younger year

0:04When all our shadows disappeared

0:06The animals inside came out to play

0:10Went face to face with all our fears

0:12Learned our lessons through the tears

0:14Made memories we knew would never fade

0:17One day, my father, he told me, "Son, don't let it slip away"

0:21He took me in his arms, I heard him say

0:25"When you get older your wild heart will live for younger days

0:29Think of me if ever you're afraid"

0:32He said, "One day, you'll leave this world behind

0:36So live a life you will remember"

0:40My father told me when I was just a child

0:44"These are the nights that never die"

0:47My father told me

0:50♪

1:18"When thunderclouds start pouring down

1:21Light a fire they can't put out

1:22Carve your name into those shining stars"

1:25He said, "Go venture far beyond the shores

1:28Don't forsake this life of yours

1:30I'll guide you home no matter where you are"

1:33One day, my father, he told me, "Son, don't let it slip away"

1:37When I was just a kid, I heard him say

1:41"When you get older your wild heart will live for younger days

1:45Think of me if ever you're afraid"

1:49He said, "One day, you'll leave this world behind

1:52So live a life you will remember"

1:56My father told me when I was just a child

2:00"These are the nights that never die"

2:03My father told me

2:06♪

2:15"These are the nights that never die"

2:18My father told me

2:21♪

2:49My father told me

2:53♪
