Lukas Graham - 7 Years

Once I was seven years old my mama told meGo make yourself some friends or you'll be lonelyOnce I was seven years old
It was a big big world, but we thought we were biggerPushing each other to the limits, we were learning quickerBy eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquorNever rich so we were out to make that steady figure
Once I was eleven years old my daddy told meGo get yourself a wife or you'll be lonelyOnce I was eleven years old
I always had that dream like my daddy before meSo I started writing songs, I started writing storiesSomething about that glory, just always seemed to bore meCause only those I really love will ever really know me
Once I was 20 years old, my story got toldBefore the morning sun, when life was lonelyOnce I was 20 years old
I only see my goals, I don't believe in failureCause I know the smallest voices, they can make it majorI got my boys with me at least those in favorAnd if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later
Once I was 20 years old, my story got toldI was writing about everything, I saw before meOnce I was 20 years old
Soon we'll be 30 years old, our songs have been soldWe've traveled around the world and we're still roamingSoon we'll be 30 years old
I'm still learning about lifeMy woman brought children for meSo I can sing them all my songsAnd I can tell them storiesMost of my boys are with meSome are still out seeking gloryAnd some I had to leave behindMy brother I'm still sorry
Soon I'll be 60 years old, my daddy got 61Remember life and then your life becomes a better oneI made a man so happy when I wrote a letter onceI hope my children come and visit, once or twice a month
Soon I'll be 60 years old, will I think the world is coldOr will I have a lot of children who can warm meSoon I'll be 60 years oldSoon I'll be 60 years old, will I think the world is coldOr will I have a lot of children who can warm meSoon I'll be 60 years old
Once I was seven years old, my mama told meGo make yourself some friends or you'll be lonelyOnce I was seven years old
Once I was seven years old
