7 Years lyrics - Lukas Graham

Once I was seven years old, my mama told me
"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely"
Once I was seven years old

It was a big big world, but we thought we were bigger
Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure

Once I was eleven years old, my daddy told me
"Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely"
Once I was eleven years old

I always had that dream, like my daddy before me
So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
Something about that glory just always seemed to bore me
'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me

Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
Once I was twenty years old

(Lukas Graham!)

I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure
'Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major
I got my boys with me, at least those in favor
And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later

Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
I was writing 'bout everything I saw before me
Once I was twenty years old

Soon we'll be thirty years old, our songs have been sold
We've traveled around the world and we're still roaming
Soon we'll be thirty years old

I'm still learning about life
My woman brought children for me
So I can sing them all my songs
And I can tell them stories
Most of my boys are with me
Some are still out seeking glory
And some I had to leave behind
My brother, I'm still sorry

Soon I'll be sixty years old, my daddy got sixty-one
Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one
I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
I hope my children come and visit once or twice a month

Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
Soon I'll be sixty years old

Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
Soon I'll be sixty years old

Once I was seven years old, my mama told me
"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely"
Once I was seven years old

Once I was seven years old

Take The World By Storm lyrics - Lukas Graham

I've always dreamt of travel
Why should we die where we were born? (born)
Some roads are laid with gravel
Sometimes you gotta build your own (own)

I wanna tear down boundaries
I wanna greet my enemies
I wanna see what I haven't seen
Cause I know there's more

I take the world by storm (storm, storm, storm)
I take the world by storm (storm, storm, storm)

I don't have any answers
The more I know the more I grow (grow)
I don't know where I'm going
But I'mma search cause I see hope (hope)

I wanna tear down boundaries
I wanna greet my enemies
I wanna see what I haven't seen
Cause I know there's more

I take the world by storm (storm, storm, storm)
I take the world by storm (storm, storm, storm)

There's got to be more than this
Gotta figure out how to jump the wall
I wanna live and learn
Don't matter if I land or if I fall
I know I might return
At least I know I'll be walking tall
I'm not afraid
Cause I take the world by storm (storm, storm, storm)
I take the world by storm (storm, storm, storm)

Mama Said lyrics - Lukas Graham

Remember asking both my mom and dad
Why we never travelled to exotic lands
We only ever really visit friends
Nothing to tell when the summer ends
We never really went buying clothes
Folks were passing on the stuff in plenty loads
New shoes once a year and then
Out to play ball so we could ruin them

When mama said that it was okay
Mama said that it was quite alright
Our kind of people had a bed for the night
And it was okay
Mama told us we were good kids
And daddy told us never listen to the ones
Pointing nasty fingers and making fun
'Cause we were good kids

Don't get me wrong I didn't have it bad
I got enough loving from my mom and dad
But I don't think they really understood
When I said that I wanted a deal in Hollywood
I told them I'd be singing on TV
The other kids were calling me a wannabe
The older kids they started bugging me
But now they're all standing right in front of me

When mama said that it was okay
Mama said that it was quite alright
Our kind of people had a bed for the night
And it was OK
Mama told us we were good kids
And daddy told us never listen to the ones
Pointing nasty fingers and making fun
'Cause we were good kids

I know which place I'm from, I know my home
When I'm in doubt and struggling
That's where I go
An old friend can give advice
Where new friends only know a half story
That's why I always keep them tight
And why I'm okay,
I said, I'm OK
You know what my mama said
You know what she told me

My mama said that it was OK
Mama said that it was quite alright
Our kind of people had a bed for the night
And it was okay
Mama told us we were good kids
And daddy told us never listen to the ones
Pointing nasty fingers and making fun
'Cause we were good kids

Mama said that it was okay
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da da-da,
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da da-da,
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da da-da
When mama said that it was okay
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da da-da,
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da da-da,
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da da-da
When mama said that it was okay

Happy Home lyrics - Lukas Graham

Mama called about the paper turns out they wrote about me
Now my broken heart's the only thing that's broke about me
So many people should have seen what we got going on
I only wanna put my heart and my life in songs
Writing about the pain I felt with my daddy gone
About the emptiness I felt when I sat alone
About the happiness I feel when I sing it loud
He should have heard the noise we made with the happy crowd
Did my grandaddy know he taught me what a poem was
How you can use a sentence or just a simple pause
What will I say when my kids ask me who my daddy was
I thought about it for a while and I'm at a loss
Knowing that I'm gonna live my whole life without him
I found out a lot of things I never knew about him
All I know is that I'll never really be alone
Cause we gotta lot of love and a happy home

Magazines are writing stuff but I don't ever read them
Some of the folks I used to know would see and start believing
That I would pass them by on streets and never reach to greet them
I still remember folks even though I rarely meet them
Don't you know I miss the times when we used to hang
Before twenty deep depended on a single man
Before a single heart was broken by a single blow
Before all our careers depended on a single show
I grew up with a lot of love in a Happy Home
Now I got a lot of cash and I'm on a road
I realize privacy's becoming difficult
It's all right now but what about when I'm old
I know my good friends now they'll last
The same ones that stood by me when my daddy past
All I know is that we'll never really be alone
Cause we got a lot of love and a happy home

I write a lot of songs will anybody ever read them
You hear them on the radio but will you really read them
Why do we have our idols and why do we wanna be them
After we see them on TV we really wanna meet them
Don't you think they miss the time when they used to hang
Before a fan base depended on a single man
Before a single heart was broken by a single show
Who's gonna stand who's gonna fall I really wanna know
I grew up with a lot of love in a happy home
My daddy use to play me vinyl but now daddy's gone
I used to practice with my mommy on the piano
I still get nervous every time I know she's at a show
Now my family comes first before everyone
I had the perfect dad I wanna be the perfect son
Though I really feel sometimes I'm on my own
I know I got a lot of love and a happy home

Hayo lyrics - Lukas Graham

I don't know what you're trying to prove
But she obviously don't feel tied down to you
You think she's so right, but hey we know it's so wrong
She might be a girl but everybody knows
They're like "Hayo she wants some"
Everybody says "Hayo she wants some" she wants some

It might seem hard when I put it like this
But maybe you should treat her like the five that she is
You've got feelings involved and you're not seeing straight
Your girl's been around that's what everybody says
They're like "Hayo she wants some"
Everybody's like "Hayo she wants some"

(Now, I'mma break it down for you)

I see you've got your problems and you're trying to make it through
I can tell you everybody's got them, but not as bad as you
"Hayo she wants some"
And everybody's like "Hayo she wants some"

I'm sorry I'm the one to let you know what's going on
You think that she's a keeper but you've got to pass her on
You say you know her well, and she's just your type
She might be good in bed, but she's not a good bite
You see a good girl, will let them know she's got a man
And start to walk away if they don't really understand
She'll be housecleaning, and cakebaking
And kissing you before babymaking
Don't you know what everybody's saying 'bout that girl?

They're like "Hayo she wants some"
Don't you know they're singing "Hayo she wants some"?
And nothing's really sad, but you cause they're all singing it
"Hayo she wants some"
And even I'm tired of singing them lines when I see her like
"Hayo she wants some" she wants some
("Hayo she wants some")
("Hayo she wants some")
("Hayo she wants some")
("Hayo she wants some")
("Hayo she wants some")
("Hayo she wants some")

When I Woke Up... (Interlude) lyrics - Lukas Graham

I took her home, I swear that she was single
When I woke up, the ring was on her finger
She heard 'round town that I don't kiss and tell
And on top of that the ladies say I do it well
When I woke up, the ring was on her finger

Don't You Worry 'Bout Me lyrics - Lukas Graham

Hey my friend, how you've been?
What are you going through?
What is this trouble, that's troubling you?

He tried to turn the thing around
And asked me how I've been
I said, I really don't know where to begin

I saw my life come crashing down
I crawled, I walked, I'm flying now
I found my strength on my knees

Don't you worry 'bout me
Don't you worry 'bout me (Hey, I'm serious, man)
Don't you worry 'bout me
Don't you worry 'bout me

A lot of people told me
When daddy passed away
Go take some time off
But I've got no time to waste

Don't you have a dream too
Some goals you've got to make
You may feel small sometimes
It don't mean you can't be great

I saw my life come crashing down
I crawled, I walked, I'm flying now
I found my strength on my knees

So, don't you worry 'bout me
Don't you worry 'bout me
Don't you worry, worry, worry
Don't you worry 'bout me
Don't you worry 'bout me

Sometimes your life can bring you down
Sometimes you run for miles and miles
Sometimes you scream without hope

Now once you feel you hit the ground
Then victory comes back around
And you'll be proud to let them know

Don't worry 'bout me
Don't you worry 'bout me
Don't you worry 'bout me
Don't you worry 'bout me
Don't you worry 'bout me
Oh please
Don't you worry, worry, worry, worry
No, don't you, don't you, worry 'bout me
Don't you worry 'bout me
Don't you worry 'bout me

What Happened To Perfect lyrics - Lukas Graham

I can see it in your eyes as I'm stumbling home
You're living with a man that you no longer know
You forgot to smile as I passed you by

Now we're sitting down for dinner we got nothing to say
It's like I'm watching you slowly slipping away
From me, from me

Remember when I used to make you laugh
And every joke was better than the last
Tell me how to bring you back to this
Maybe I just need to reminisce and work it out

What happened to perfect
What happened to us
We used to be worth it
We never gave up

It wasn't on purpose
But hurts like it was
Nobody deserves this
What happened to perfect

If you left me, baby, where would you go
I can't imagine you ever being alone
I'm a jealous man, but I'll try to understand

So many things to say I don't know where to start
I can't pick up the pieces of a crumbling heart
So true, so true

Remember when I used to make you laugh
And every joke was better than the last
Tell me how to bring you back to this
Maybe I just need to reminisce and work it out

What happened to perfect
What happened to us
We used to be worth it
We never gave up

It wasn't on purpose
But hurts like it was
Nobody deserves this
What happened to perfect

What's under the surface, it used to be love
Would you call if you heard this, would you know it was us
It wasn't on purpose, but hurts like it was
Nobody deserves this
What happened to perfect
Nobody deserves this

I can see it in your eyes as I'm stumbling home
You're living with a man that you no longer know
You forgot to smile

Playtime lyrics - Lukas Graham

We started with a clean slate
Came to stake our claim
Looking for a good time
On the streets that reek of fame

Where everybody looks good
They're better dressed than me
The waitress brings us cold beers
But she wants to see ID

I swear she saw me coming
Well maybe in an hour or two
She said: "Boy do you like downtown?"
What else was I to do?

You know I tipped her, and
Slipped, slipped her the number
I said I just got into town and I wanna
Hang out and light up some marijuana
You wanna? You wanna? You?

She said when I get off it's playtime
I'll show you where to go on late nights
And later I'll give you the bed ride
And maybe I can make you beg right
She said when I get off it's playtime
I'll show you where to go on late nights
And later I'll give you the bed ride
Oh baby I'm gon' make you beg right

She took me to a dive bar
The kind that never close
The cheapest drink was Bourbon shots
So we loaded up on those
Her friend was serving all night
I liked her serving slow
When locking up she told me: "sit"
While she told the rest to go

So I tipped her and
Slipped, slipped her the number
I said I just got into town and I wanna
Hang out and light up some marijuana
You wanna? You wanna? You?

She said when I get off it's playtime
I'll show you where to go on late nights
And later I'll give you the bed ride
And maybe I can make you beg right
She said when I get off it's playtime
I'll show you where to go on late nights
And later I'll give you the bed ride
Oh baby I'm gon' make you beg right

If a girl has got to go
And work all day (work all day)
I'm gonna do my best to help her find a little time to play

She said when I get off it's playtime
I'll show you where to go on late nights
And later I'll give you the bed ride
And maybe I can make you beg right
She said when I get off it's playtime
I'll show you where to go on late nights
And later I'll give you the bed ride
Oh baby I'm gon' make you beg right

Strip No More lyrics - Lukas Graham

I met this girl, I think she likes me
I must admit I like her too
She said she'd be working tonight
I said cool I'll drop by and she looked at me, smiled, and said: That's great, baby
When I showed up, I was confused

I said: Hey, where's that girl I talked to yesterday?
Now I said: Hey, where is Destiny, is that her name?
I can't believe she would leave
Without me, Destiny

How come you don't strip no more?
Uh-uh-uh uhhhh
How come you don't strip no more?
Uh-uh-uh uhhhhh

I met your friends, I think they like me
(They like me) Ooh!
But they don't do it like you do (Like you do)
They told me you were graduated, why didn't you say it?
That's so cool
I'm just so proud you made it through

But I said: Hey, where's that girl I talked to yesterday?
Now I said: Hey, where is Destiny, is that her name?
I can't believe she would leave
Without me, Destiny

How come you don't strip no more?
Uh-uh-uh uhhhhh
How come you don't strip no more?
Uh-uh-uh uhhhhh

See, I was at table three, b.y.o.b. and
Destiny sat next to me
Asked me if I liked her dance
I told her "I'm your biggest fan"
Then she took me by the hand, and turned this boy into a man
Inside a private room, I hope you understand
I was like: Woo hoo (woo hoo)
She made me go: Wee hee (wee hee)
Now I'm not mad that you don't want me
I'm just stuck here wondering
I wanna know

How come you don't strip no more?
Uh-uh-uh uhhhhh
How come you don't strip no more?
Uh-uh-uh uhhhhh

Why don't you strip no more?
Don't strip no more
Baby don't strip no more
Don't strip no more
Don't strip no more
Baby don't strip no more
Don't strip no more my baby, baby
Strip more my baby, baby
She told me that she won't go

Strip strip strip
She won't strip strip strip
She won't strip strip strip
She won't strip strip strip

No tips if you don't strip
My baby, no tips if you don't strip
Where am I supposed to put my dollar bills at?

How come you don't strip no more?

You're Not There lyrics - Lukas Graham

I only got you in my stories
And you know I tell them right
I remember you and I, when I'm awake at night
So give it up for fallen glory
I never got to say goodbye
I wish I could ask for just a bit more time

Every step I take, you used to lead the way
Now I'm terrified to face it on my own

You're not there
To celebrate the man that you made
You're not there
To share in my success and mistakes
Is it fair?
You'll never know the person I'll be
You're not there
With me

Though I know that you're not there
I still write you all these songs
It's like you got the right to know what's going on
As I struggle to remember how you used to look and sound
At times I still think I can spot you in the crowd

Every step I take, you used to lead the way
And now I'm terrified to face it on my own

You're not there
To celebrate the man that you made
You're not there
To share in my success and mistakes
Is it fair?
You'll never know the person I'll be
You're not there
With me

Time can heal your wounds if you're strong and standing tall
I've been doing all of that, it didn't help at all
They say, "You'll grow older, and it'll get better still"
Yes, I will, but no, it won't
They don't get it's cause

You're not there
To celebrate the man that you made
You're not there
To share in my success and mistakes
Is it fair?
You'll never know the person I'll be
You're not there
With me

(You're not there there there
You're not there there there
You're not there there there
You're not there there there)

Funeral lyrics - Lukas Graham

When it's my time
I know you'll tailor a new suit for me
And buy a new tie, so I look this good
Boy you were right
You said, "Only the good ones die young"
Never in my life, did I look this good

Everyone welcome to my funeral
Everyone I know better be wasted
You know I would pour one up
'Cause the way I lived it was amazing
Hu hu hu
All of my friends are in the room
Hu hu hu
Party for me, I'd party too

You're all on my tab
Bartenders pour out the whiskeys on me
And don't be so sad 'Cause I lived this good

We're all closer, now it's over
But it doesn't mean it's closure
I see you and I love you
I'll be watching out above you

Everyone welcome to my funeral
Everyone I know better be wasted
You know I would pour one up
'Cause the way I lived it was amazing
Uh-uh-uh
All of my friends are in the room
Uh-uh-uh
Party for me - I'd party too
Uh-uh-uh
All of my friends are in the room
Uh-uh-uh
Party for me - I'd party too

Everyone welcome to my funeral
Everyone I know better be wasted
You know I would pour one up
'Cause the way I lived it was amazing
Welcome to my funeral
Everyone I know better be wasted
You know I would pour one up
'Cause the way I lived, it was amazing
Welcome to my funeral
Everyone I know better be wasted
You know I would pour one up
'Cause the way I lived, it was amazing
So welcome to my funeral
Welcome to my funeral

Lukas Graham (2012)




















Ordinary Things lyrics - Lukas Graham

You, thought that I could change
But I'm all the same, girl I'm all the same
You, thought that you could work me out

It's just that all these ordinary things, ordinary things
Seemed to hunt you, making me wanna dump you
Just that all these ordinary things, ordinary things
Seems a lot, why don't we just break it up, hey

You had me in your hand, and I don't understand
Why you tripping cause I ain't slipping
Baby I'm your man
You text excessively, you can't leave me be
I don't ask you, what you're up to
But you keep calling, me
You have got to stop these things
I need someone with confidence
Confidence ain't buying rings
And ask me where I drink my drinks
I don't need you
To tell me what to do
It's all up in your head
And I'm just sorry that

These ordinary things, ordinary things
Seemed to hunt you, making me wanna dump you
Just that all these ordinary things, ordinary things
Seems a lot, why don't we just break it up, hey

We've got to end this show, I've got to let you go
I can't stand it, you're too demanding
Such a jealous ho'
You put it in my head, like a bullet made of lead
Baby stop it you've got to drop it there

You should know what happens
When you say them things you say
Your value falls
Girl it falls
Don't blame me for shit I didn't do
Maybe I should have gone out cheating on you

You have got to stop these things
I need someone with confidence
Confidence ain't buying rings
And ask me where I drink my drinks
I don't need you
To tell me what to do
It's all up in your head
And I ain't sorry that them ordinary things, them ordinary things
Used to hunt you, cause baby now I dumped you
And all them ordinary things , them ordinary things
Were too much, cause now I broke it up

Nice Guy lyrics - Lukas Graham

Boy I tried to tell you, but you just wouldn't hear
We've got the house full of ladies and you're acting all queer
We've got your female friends, but you can't get anywhere
I'll tell you one last time boy life isn't fair
Na na na
If you feel ashamed, step up your game
She's calling my name, cause she's getting bored
She thinks you're a fool, for not making moves
It could have been you, oh, so you're the nice guy

I'm gonna get my la la la
He's gonna get some la la la
All of my boys gonna get their la la la
You won't get no na na na
I'm gonna get my la la la
He's gonna get some la la la
All of my boys gonna get their la la la
You won't get no na na na, nice guy

I told you many times before but boy you did it again
You met a hot, ass, girl and turned her into your friend
You bought her drinks oh lord you were ready to spend
I brought her home that night and I should thank you again
Cause you're the nice guy
If you feel ashamed, step up your game
She's calling my name, cause she's getting bored
She thinks you're a fool, for not making moves
It could have been you, oh, so you're the nice guy

I'm gonna get my la la la
He's gonna get some la la la
All of my boys gonna get their la la la
You won't get no na na na
I'm gonna get my la la la
He's gonna get some la la la
All of my boys gonna get their la la la
You won't get no na na na, nice guy

Rule number one, don't ever do it her way
Cause if you make her do it your way you might do it today
And, rule number two don't ever buy in the bar
Cause if you buy in the bar, the next thing she wants a car
When you're the nice guy
When you're the nice guy
When you're the nice guy
When you're the nice guy

Drunk In The Morning lyrics - Lukas Graham

Girl, I got one question
Are you still awake?
Awake enough for me to see you, see you
Please just listen, yes I know it's late
But better late than never

I know it's five in the morning, morning
Not sure who I'm calling, calling
You haven't heard from me in some time
Girl I hope you want me, want me
When you hear me talking, talking
You know I've been out and is it OK I stop by

When I'm drunk in the morning,
I'm calling you, you might be lonely, lonely
When I'm drunk in the morning
I'm calling you, you might be lonely, lonely

Emma I did, and Sophie I kissed baby
Sarah I had in my hand, but I'm calling you
But not before it's past two o'clock
Cause I'm balling with my boys, my boys, my boys

I know it's five in the morning, morning
Not sure who I'm calling, calling
You haven't heard from me in some time
Girl I hope you want me, want me
When you hear me talking, talking
You know I've been out and is it OK I stop by

When I'm drunk in the morning
I'm calling you, you might be lonely, lonely
When I'm drunk in the morning
I'm calling you, you might be lonely, lonely

I know you're glad I called, now you can have it all
When we are together, you know how it should be
When you're drunk
Maybe we should go, and spend some time alone
Baby you're so beautiful
When I'm drunk, when I'm drunk, yea

When I'm drunk in the morning
I'm calling you, you might be lonely, lonely
When I'm drunk in the morning
I'm calling you, you might be lonely, lonely

When You're With Me (Interlude) lyrics - Lukas Graham

You keep blaming me
For crashing down your dreams
Remember it's just a game we play
But you're ashamed to see nothing's what it seems
When you're with me baby
When you're with me

Red Wine lyrics - Lukas Graham

Why don't you
Come over and drink a glass of red wine
Why don't you
Come over and get to know me
Why don't you, come sit in the candlelight
I know you got things to show me
Why don't you, come drink a glass of red wine
I'll show you things of mine

I have a dinner invitation for two
All included me and you
A bit of porch, summer afternoon
We'll be enjoying wine and stars soon
Night sky I'm, nice high high
Good company, such a fly vibe
It's you the weed the wine and me
Aren't you glad you came over this evening

Why don't you
Come over and drink a glass of red wine
Why don't you
Come over and get to know me
Why don't you, come sit in the candlelight
I know you got things to show me
Why don't you, come drink a glass of red wine
I'll show you things of mine

I let the wine drop into your glass
You feel that warm sensation in your face
You wanna feel, you wanna laugh
It will all be over so fast
I ask shall we, she says maybe
Turn my back, and she says take me
She truly is one remarkable lady
I wonder, of what is she created

Why don't you
Come over and drink a glass of red wine
Why don't you
Come over and get to know me
Why don't you, come sit in the candlelight
I know you got things to show me
Why don't you, come drink a glass of red wine
I'll show you things of mine

I follow you, your glass and your ass
Into the room so fast
I grab the bottle, and we snuggle
Strip each other at last
Steaming hot, believe it or not
We both gave it all we got, and when we're done
We'll smoke another one drink some more
Then an encore and an encore, encore

Apologize lyrics - Lukas Graham

Baby got me smiling, forgetting all her flaws
My angel lost her halo, so I put her next to God
I called her my angel gave her all my time
And she was the kind of woman
Who could give me peace of mind
But now it's over she betrayed me

(How does the defendant plead?)

I'm not guilty, there's nothing I did wrong
What I did was all her fault
And I won't apologize
I won't apologize, for what she made me do
I won't apologize to you

(Sit down young man or I will hold you in contempt of this court!)

I took her for a picnic
Asked her is it true
She said yes and I'm sorry
I never meant to hurt you
She began to worry
I said I'm still in love
And you can't keep on living
If you don't think I'm enough
And now it's over she betrayed me

(How does the defendant plead?)

I'm not guilty, there's nothing I did wrong
What I did was all her fault
And I won't apologize
I won't apologize, for what she made me do
I won't apologize to you

(I'm dismissing this case on the grounds of insubstantial evidence!)

Policeman got me smiling
He thinks I'll go to jail
But I got proper lawyers
So I told him go to hell
The judge is asking questions
I don't know what to say
Only that she slept around
And that she deserved to pay

And I won't apologize
I won't apologize
There's nothing I did wrong
What I did was all her fault
And I won't apologize
I won't apologize, for what she made me do
I won't apologize to you

Daddy, Now That You're Gone (Ain't No Love) lyrics - Lukas Graham

Ain't no love
In the heart of the city
Daddy, there ain't no love
In the heart of town

Oh Daddy there ain't no love
In the show of them pity
Daddy there ain't no love
Cause you're ain't around

When you were mine
I was feeling so good
Cause you loved this neighborhood
Oh daddy now that you're gone
You know the sun don't shine
From the city's home to the county line

That's why I say that there ain't no love
In the heart of the city!
Daddy there ain't no love
In the heart of town
No Daddy, ain't no love
In the show(meant) of the pity
Daddy there ain't no love
Cause you ain't around

Every place where I go
And I would seem so strange
Without you there
Things have changed
Oh Daddy now that you're gone
You know the sun don't shine
From the city, ohhh, to the county line

That's why I say there ain't no love
In the heart of the city
Daddy there ain't no love
In the heart of town
No daddy ain't no love
In the show(meant) of the pity
Daddy there ain't no love
Cause you ain't around

Oh Daddy, now that you're gone
You know the sun don't shine
From the city, ohhh, to the county line
Oh Daddy now that you're gone
You know the sun don't shine
From the city - to the county line

That's why I say:
There ain't no love
Ain't no love
Ain't no love
Ain't no love
Ain't no love

Criminal Mind lyrics - Lukas Graham

Years go by and I miss you
I can't describe what you've been through
But you're gone
We do what we believe in
Set a goal and stop dreaming
I'm not saying you're wrong

But every time you're going
And I'm asking myself why
Hoping, oh just hoping you won't go
I know you're proud of me
You're holding your head high
It's OK, it's OK, it's OK, it's OK

'Cause I know I'll get you back
Though I know your mind is criminal
It don't matter, no
That you're going in again
I know I'll get you back
No, I know your mind is criminal
I got women for you man
When you're coming out again

You know I could have been with you
Been with you, done what you been through
I had a chance to choose
When enough's enough will you know it
When you reach your goal will you hold it
I'm afraid you're gonna lose

But every time you're going
And I'm asking myself why
Hoping, oh just hoping you won't go
I know you're proud of me
You're holding your head high
It's OK, it's OK, it's OK, it's OK

'Cause I know I'll get you back
Though I know your mind is criminal
It don't matter no
I bet you're going in again
I know I'll get you back
No, I know your mind is criminal
I got women for you man
When you're coming out again

I know I'll get you back
A criminal, a criminal

I know I'll get you back
A criminal, a criminal

I know I'll get you back
A criminal, a criminal

I know I'll get you back
A criminal, a criminal

Better Than Yourself (Criminal Mind Pt. 2) lyrics - Lukas Graham

I got the letter back,
Saying I can come and see you
I really don't have time,
But promised that I'd come and see you
You're sitting far away,
But do you know I sometimes need you
I know that you deserve the time you got
Of all the people

I know you never bend,
Even in the strongest wind
I really wished to every god
That you were innocent
I'm happy and I'm proud
That I can still call you my friend
I hope you read the letters
And the magazines I send

You've got your head up
But I don't have my hopes high
I know that you're a good man
And that's what brings a tear to my eye

I'm like, oh
I hope you know you're not alone in that hell
And there ain't, no
No one can change it,
No one can do it better but yourself

I was sixteen
And we used to roll together
You told me back then
That I was meant for something better
You know in our life
Nothing's gon' change but the weather
It seems it's been forever,
Since we really stuck together

I'm living a crazy life
I wish that you could see it too
See a thousand people
Sing my song from me to you
Every time I sing it
You know I'm bleeding too
Man, I accept you as you are
No, I don't need the truth

I got my head up
But I ain't got my hopes high
See, I know you're a good man
And it—it brings a tear to my eye

And I'm like, oh
I hope you know you're not alone in that hell
And there ain't, no
No one can change it,
No one can do it better but yourself

I reminisce to back then, when it was you and I
Smoking big fat blunts, drive-in movie night
They tried to get you down, but you refused to die
They tried to give you angel wings, but you refused to fly

You'd rather stay in hell, and take your time in jail
They're only punishing a soul that you will never sell
We both know that we owe nothing to each other
But can you blame me for loving and missing my brother

Oh
I hope you know you're not alone in that hell
And there ain't, no
No one can change it,
No one can do it better but yourself
Oh
I hope you know you're not alone in that hell
And there ain't, no
No one can change it
No one can do it better but yourself

Don't Hurt Me This Way lyrics - Lukas Graham

Sunday morning
Trying to clear my head
I don't remember what I did
I can't remember shit
But I feel good
You know you've got to leave
But now you want me, you really want me
Now you're on your knees
Begging please, oh
And acting kind of strange
Telling me how much you want me
But this can never change
I used to want you
Now it's not the same
What you give is what you get
I said no but you're still begging

Baby don't hurt me don't hurt me this way
I thought we agreed that we both felt the same
Baby don't hurt me, it's not okay
You said

I know I told you
Girl there's no excuse
We both helped to draw the line
You had the chance to choose
Why you messing
Messing with my head
Making me feel guilty
When you know I'm innocent
Baby please oh
You were just a fling
I never would have started
If I knew how it would end
All I'm asking
Is take this pain away
What you give is what you get
I said no but you're still begging

Baby don't hurt me don't hurt me this way
I thought we agreed that we both felt the same
Baby don't hurt me, it's not okay
You said

You said it meant nothing to you
That it was alright with you
Don't ask me what I can't do
So why you being unfair?!
So why you being so cruel?!
So why you being this mean?!
What have I ever done to you?
But you're still begging

Baby don't hurt me don't hurt me this way
I'm sorry I can't take your pain away
So baby don't hurt me it's not ok
You said

So baby don't hurt me don't hurt me this way
I thought we agreed that we both felt the same
So baby don't hurt me, it's not okay
You said

Moving Alone lyrics - Lukas Graham

I was still in my teens
The biggest man in my life went and shattered my dreams
How could you do it to mom
I swore back then I wouldn't be like you
And it hurt like hell you didn't tell us the truth
How could you do it to mom
I don't even know if you know that you hurt us
From all I understand it seems like you just don't care
Now I'm walking alone with my burden
A burden to bear that can never belong to me

I'm just a chip off the block never too far from you
Tell me daddy what to do
Tell me is it destiny, to start fooling around and keep fooling around
Did you know that I knew, knew about her and you
And I felt so confused, I even considered
To tell mommy the truth
Tell mommy the truth
Tell mommy the truth
Tell mommy the truth
Tell mommy the truth

But I'm just like him
Now the circle starts over starts over again
I realize, the story's not over at all
I thought the cheating would have ended with him
But I'm cheating, now I'm cheating on my own girlfriend
Truth be told I guess she wasn't special at all
She doesn't even know if I know that I hurt her
From all she understands it seems like I just don't care
Now I'm walking alone with my burden
A burden I bear now because it belongs to me

I'm just a chip off the block I'm never too far from you
Tell me daddy what to do
Tell me is it destiny, to start fooling around and keep fooling around
Did you know that I knew, knew about her and you
And I felt so confused, I even considered
To tell mommy the truth
Tell mommy the truth
Tell mommy the truth
Tell mommy the truth
Tell mommy the truth

Everybody's walking alone
Everybody's walking alone
Everybody's walking alone
I said
Everybody's walking alone
Everybody's walking alone
I know that everybody's walking alone

I'm just a chip off the block I'm never too far from you
Tell me daddy what to do
Tell me is it destiny, to start fooling around and keep fooling around
Did you know that I knew, knew about her and you
And I felt so confused, I even considered
To tell mommy the truth
Tell mommy the truth
Tell mommy the truth
Tell mommy the truth
Tell mommy the truth

Oohhh (Interlude) lyrics - Lukas Graham

Oh
She's got me screaming for more
Damn she can blow
Get your knees on the floor
And lets go
Let's see how deep I can go
I wanted to blow
My load
But I thought no

Never Let Me Down lyrics - Lukas Graham

There's just something about her
She got me working harder
She is always on my mind
Oh oh oh I tell ya
She's got something that's better
It holds my world together
When she's a with me I'm alright
And everywhere I go empty handed
Feeling we've been parted for so long
That's why I keep you right here in my palm

You never let me, down
Swear you're a blessing, oh
Ain't you the best thing, wow
Love everlasting
Never get me wrong
Oh you let me be
You gotta love me
Come on
Come on

Back at the bar I was having my drink
Talking to my lady never needed a shrink
Somebody sent me a smile then she threw me a wink
She asked are you single I said what do you think
Girl everywhere I go empty handed
Feeling we've been parted for so long
That's why I keep you right here on my arm

You never let me, down
Swear you're a blessing, oh
Ain't you the best thing, wow
Love everlasting
Never get me wrong
Oh you let me be
You gotta love me
Come on
Come on

I like to mix it, girl I'd like to twist it with you
I like to shake it girl I think I'll make it with you
I like to mix it, girl I'd like to twist it with you, you, you

You never let me, down
Swear you're a blessing, oh
Ain't you the best thing, wow
Love everlasting
Never get me wrong
Oh you let me be
You gotta love me
Come on
Come on

Before The Morning Sun lyrics - Lukas Graham

Sitting awake before the morning sun
Only cause I couldn't fall asleep while the night was young
I'm restless can't call myself stressless
These past weeks have left me breathless and senseless
My brother from another mother lost a brother
My father lost his father I lost a friend
Something that I couldn't comprehend
We'll never see these men again
Once upon a time life was so innocent

We're past the past
The now is now
The future will be here in a minute
But I don't care what's going down
Any how

I miss the time with the many smiles
When we could always stretch it for a little while
Now you're gone and it feels like I'm alone
Oh God damn it how I miss you so
Sometimes it will feel time can stop
Sometimes I feel like giving up
But then I hear a voice inside of me saying
Better die with your chin up than living on your knees
Daydreaming is okay sometimes
But to face the facts really hurts
And when you finally feel the weight of your burden
Get up again if you kiss the dirt
I'd rather live one day as a lion
Than live a hundred years as a sheep
I'd rather reign in hell than serve in heaven
Live my dreams out in reality and not in my sleep

The past is gone
The now is now
The future will be here in a minute
But I don't care what's going down
What's going down

People tell me pick yourself up off the road
Can't I just stay and get squashed like a little toad
They'll say you have a burden to carry
Somewhere along the line there's a girl to marry
But don't worry I'll get up
I won't give it up even if it won't stop
Hurting in my heart now that we're apart
My chronic pain is about to start will it be hard
I'd rather live one day as a lion
Than live a hundred years as a sheep
I'd rather reign in hell than serve in heaven
Live my dreams out in reality and not in my sleep
