Lukas Graham - 7 Years

[00:19.83] Once, I was seven years old, my mama told me

[00:24.61] "Go make yourself some friends, or you'll be lonely"

[00:28.07] Once, I was seven years old

[00:36.30] It was a big-big world, but we thought we were bigger

[00:40.28] Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker

[00:44.53] By 11, smoking herb and drinking burning liquor

[00:48.51] Never rich, so we were out to make that steady figure

[00:51.97] Once, I was 11 years old, my daddy told me

[00:56.48] "Go get yourself a wife, or you'll be lonely"

[00:59.94] Once, I was 11 years old

[01:08.18] I always had that dream like my daddy before me

[01:12.44] So I started writing songs, I started writing stories

[01:16.42] Something about the glory just always seemed to bore me

[01:20.41] 'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me

[01:23.86] Once, I was 20 years old, my story got told

[01:28.91] Before the morning sun, when life was lonely

[01:31.84] Once, I was 20 years old

[01:35.39] (Lukas Graham!)

[01:40.26] I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure

[01:44.24] 'Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major

[01:48.50] I got my boys with me, at least those in favor

[01:52.48] And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later

[01:55.93] Once, I was 20 years old, my story got told

[02:00.46] I was writing 'bout everything, I saw before me

[02:03.90] Once, I was 20 years old

[02:11.87] Soon, we'll be 30 years old, our songs have been sold

[02:16.65] We've traveled around the world, and we're still roaming

[02:19.84] Soon, we'll be 30 years old

[02:28.34] I'm still learning about life, my woman brought children for me

[02:32.32] So I can sing them all my songs, and I can tell them stories

[02:36.31] Most of my boys are with me, some are still out seeking glory

[02:40.30] And some I had to leave behind, my brother, I'm still sorry

[02:44.01] Soon, I'll be 60 years old, my daddy got 61

[02:48.26] Remember life and then your life becomes a better one

[02:52.24] I made the man so happy when I wrote a letter once

[02:56.23] I hope my children come and visit, once or twice a month

[02:59.95] Soon, I'll be 60 years old, will I think the world is cold?

[03:04.09] Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?

[03:07.82] Soon, I'll be 60 years old

[03:15.78] Soon, I'll be 60 years old, will I think the world is cold?

[03:20.30] Or will I have a lot of children who can hold me?

[03:24.02] Soon, I'll be 60 years old

[03:31.99] Once, I was seven years old, my mama told me

[03:36.51] "Go make yourself some friends, or you'll be lonely"

[03:39.96] Once, I was seven years old

[03:47.94] Once, I was seven years old
