7 Years - Lukas Graham (Cover by Jasmine Thompson)
[00:17.57] Once I was seven years old my momma told me
[00:22.56] Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely
[00:25.56] Once I was seven years old
[00:34.09] It was a big big world, but we thought we were bigger
[00:38.30] Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
[00:42.59] By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
[00:46.59] Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
[00:50.07] Once I was eleven years old my daddy told me
[00:55.07] Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely
[00:58.31] Once I was eleven years old
[01:06.82] I always had that dream like my daddy before me
[01:11.33] So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
[01:15.05] Something about that glory just always seemed to bore me
[01:18.81] 'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me
[01:22.56] Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
[01:27.58] Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
[01:30.57] Once I was twenty years old
[01:39.32] I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure
[01:43.31] 'Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major
[01:47.31] I got my boys with me at least those in favor
[01:51.31] And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later
[01:55.06] Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
[02:00.07] I was writing about everything, I saw before me
[02:03.08] Once I was twenty years old
[02:11.31] Soon we'll be thirty years old, our songs have been sold
[02:16.09] We've traveled around the world and we're still roaming
[02:19.58] Soon we'll be thirty years old
[02:28.06] I'm still learning about life
[02:30.32] My woman brought children for me
[02:32.32] So I can sing them all my songs
[02:34.34] And I can tell them stories
[02:36.33] Most of my boys are with me
[02:38.07] Some are still out seeking glory
[02:40.10] And some I had to leave behind
[02:42.31] My brother I'm still sorry
[02:43.82] Soon I'll be sixty years old, my daddy got sixty-one
[02:48.31] Remember life and then your life becomes a better one
[02:52.81] I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
[02:56.56] I hope my children come and visit, once or twice a month
[03:00.06] Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
[03:05.55] Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me
[03:08.31] Soon I'll be sixty years old
[03:16.33] Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
[03:21.07] Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me
[03:24.56] Soon I'll be sixty years old
[03:32.81] Once I was seven years old, momma told me
[03:37.56] Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely
[03:40.82] Once I was seven years old
[03:49.07] Once I was seven years old
