Lyrics of 'The Nights' by Avicii

On our website, we have the complete lyrics of the song The Nights that you were looking for.

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

(Hey, hey)
(Hey, hey)
(Hey, hey)

(Hey, hey)
(Hey, hey)
(Hey, hey)
(Hey, hey)

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

(Hey, hey)
(Hey, hey)
(Hey, hey)

These are the nights that never die
My father told me

(Hey, hey)
(Hey, hey)
(Hey, hey)
(Hey)

(Hey, hey)
(Hey, hey)
(Hey, hey)
(Hey, hey)

My father told me
