Lukas Graham - 7 Years [Official Music Video]
[00:20.29] Once, I was seven years old, my mama told me
[00:25.33] "Go make yourself some friends, or you'll be lonely"
[00:28.26] Once, I was seven years old
[00:36.49] It was a big-big world, but we thought we were bigger
[00:41.01] Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
[00:44.73] By 11, smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
[00:48.71] Never rich, so we were out to make that steady figure
[00:52.60] Once, I was 11 years old, my daddy told me
[00:56.58] "Go get yourself a wife, or you'll be lonely"
[01:00.30] Once, I was 11 years old
[01:08.80] I always had that dream like my daddy before me
[01:12.79] So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
[01:16.77] Something about the glory just always seemed to bore me
[01:21.02] 'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me
[01:24.74] Once, I was 20 years old, my story got told
[01:29.43] Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
[01:32.61] Once, I was 20 years old
[01:36.59] (Lukas Graham!)
[01:40.59] I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure
[01:44.85] 'Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major
[01:49.11] I got my boys with me, at least those in favor
[01:53.09] And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later
[01:56.80] Once, I was 20 years old, my story got told
[02:01.24] I was writing 'bout everything, I saw before me
[02:04.68] Once, I was 20 years old
[02:12.39] Soon, we'll be 30 years old, our songs have been sold
[02:17.34] We've traveled around the world, and we're still roaming
[02:20.53] Soon, we'll be 30 years old
[02:28.42] I'm still learning about life, my woman brought children for me
[02:32.67] So I can sing them all my songs, and I can tell them stories
[02:36.66] Most of my boys are with me, some are still out seeking glory
[02:40.64] And some I had to leave behind, my brother, I'm still sorry
[02:44.89] Soon, I'll be 60 years old, my daddy got 61
[02:49.30] Remember life and then your life becomes a better one
[02:53.30] I made the man so happy when I wrote a letter once
[02:57.02] I hope my children come and visit, once or twice a month
[03:00.72] Soon, I'll be 60 years old, will I think the world is cold?
[03:05.23] Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
[03:08.70] Soon, I'll be 60 years old
[03:16.66] Soon, I'll be 60 years old, will I think the world is cold?
[03:21.10] Or will I have a lot of children who can hold me?
[03:24.82] Soon, I'll be 60 years old
[03:32.78] Once, I was seven years old, my mama told me
[03:38.09] "Go make yourself some friends, or you'll be lonely"
[03:40.92] Once, I was seven years old
[03:48.80] Once, I was seven years old
