The Nights Lyrics - The Days/nights - Avicii

Once upon a younger year 

When all our shadows disappeared 

The animals inside came out to play 

Went face to face with all our fears 

Learned our lessons through the tears 

Made memories we knew would never fade 

One day my father, he told me 

"Son, don't let it slip away" 

He took me in his arms, I heard him say 

"When you get older 

Your wild heart will live for younger days 

Think of me if ever you're afraid"

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

So live a life you will remember" 

My father told me when I was just a child 

"These are the nights that never die" 

My father told me 

When thunder clouds start pouring down 

Light a fire they can't put out 

Carve your name into those shining stars 

He said: "Go venture far beyond the shores 

Don't forsake this life of yours 

I'll guide you home, no matter where you are" 

One day my father, he told me 

"Son, don't let it slip away" 

When I was just a kid, I heard him say 

"When you get older 

Your wild heart will live for younger days 

Think of me if ever you're afraid" 

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

So live a life you will remember" 

My father told me when I was just a child 

"These are the nights that never die" 

My father told me 

"These are the nights that never die" 

My father told me
