Lyrics:
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
Isn't 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
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
Isn't 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, 'cause

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

Thanks to this young man's lyrical genius I'm now talking to my dad again after a very long time.

[ranniedayrit-atencion]

Did anyone else notice how they started playing "Funeral" at 3:28 ? What a nice transition! They're probably connecting the two videos. Love this album!

My father died last year of cancer. Now I’m 23 and this song definitely describes perfect my feelings and emotions, especially the last lines. As time goes through, I realize that it’s something that I’ll never get over. I’ll learn how to live dealing with it, but not getting over it. Greetings and a warm-hearted embrace to everyone who has lost a loved one💫

[kaitlinp]

His lyrics are so powerful and passionate. In every song, too.

[TinyTurtlesTv]

Almost certain this song is about his dad being dead and how he misses him.
I love how much feeling he uses in his music. Very powerful.
Lukas Graham, you're the best :)

Makes me shed tears everytime I hear this song. Memories of my Grandfather who raised me because my father wasn't man enough to do so.. Grandfather passed when I was 18 from lung cancer. Also brings me long lost memories of my best friend who committed suicide in 05', he was only 18, I was only 13 at the time, he also had a big part in my up bringing and the man I am today. Nothing but Unconditional Love Until the End of Time. Hope this song helps heal many other hearts as it has mine.

Please tell me I'm not the only one rewinding the first 23 seconds of this song like crazy.its spectacular

[alex-cycp]

Isn't it strange that you don't care about someone but once their gone you regret everything bad you ever did to them

[accordinglyryan]

My mother died of ALS two days ago. This song really hits home for me. In so much pain right now.

I only got you in my stories
And you know I tell them right
And 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 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 succes 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 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 succes and mistakes
Is it fair?
You'll never know the person I'll be
You're not there

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, it's cause

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

After losing my dad to Covid and not even being allowed to visit him in the hospital to say goodbye, this song hits too close to home. I can’t even finish listening to it

[djem_music]

Please guys remember that Lukas Graham is a band. Lukas is not a solist - his name is Lukas "Graham" Forchammer. The band name is Lukas Graham and they deserve recognition and respect, not only Lukas.

I actually just love how emotional he can get his songs. best artist for expressing messages through songs in this generation without a doubt

[muhammedeminkizilkaya]

I think there are thousands of people who can relate their experiences with his. I have been reading comments where people have been reuniting with their family members after listening to this music and I do not deny that this song has a huge impact on me as well. Many modern musicians can learn a lot from Lucas Graham.

[akiokohler]

I lost my Mother at the age of 7 I am now 22 and this song is absolutely everything and reading these comments I just want to tell you all that I love you and your loved one does as well

[MarlonAlvarez]

This song should've been a #1 hit. I don't understand why it didn't get the support it needed. Such a beautiful song, and one of the best ever released.

[Tales_From_The_Crypto]

Masterpiece... R.I.P to your father Lukas.. Thank you for this Beautiful song

[tgf]

This is deep song. This guy never lets me down. Every song is real and meaningful. We need more artist like this. Love you Lukas!

[hoome]

Just lost my husband of 20 years 4 days ago. His passing was very sudden. This song both comforts n gets me crying at the same time. I’m hoping what Luke says is right. Time can heal if I’m strong.

[randywurth]

Just saw Lukas Grahm last night in Madison Wi. Was a small venue and the band was great!!!! So much energy and meaning in his songs. I am 68 and lost my dad over 25 years ago and this song brings back whole lot of memories.
