7 Years by Lukas Graham
Once I was seven years old, my momma told me,
Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely.
Once I was seven years old.
It was a big big world, but we thought we (1)________ bigger.
Pushing (2)________ other to the limits, we won't (3)__________ (4)________ quicker.
By (5)____________ smoking herb and drinking (6)______________ liquor
Never (7)________ so we (8)________ out to make that steady figure
Once I was (9)____________ years old, my daddy told me,
Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely.
Once I was eleven years old.
I always had that dream like my (10)__________ before me
So I started writing songs, I (11)______________ (12)______________ stories
Something about that glory, just always seemed to bore me,
Cause only those I really love will ever (13)____________ know me
Once I was twenty years old, my story got told,
Before the morning sun, when life was lonely.
Once I was twenty (14)__________ old.
I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure.
Cause I know the smallest voices, (15)________ can make it major.
I got my boys (16)________ me at least those in favour,
And if we don't see before I leave, I hope to see you later.
Once I was 20 years old, my story got told
I was writing about everything, I saw before me
Once I was 20 years old.
Soon we'll be 30 (17)__________ old, our (18)__________ (19)________ been sold,
We've traveled around the world and we're still rolling.
Soon we'll be 30 (20)__________ old.
I'm (21)__________ learning (22)__________ life
My woman brought (23)________________ for me
So I can sing them all my songs
And I can tell them stories
Most of my boys are with me
Some are (24)__________ out seeking glory
And some I had to leave behind
My brother I'm still sorry
Remember life and then your (25)________ becomes a better one
I made a man so happy (26)________ I wrote a (27)____________ once
I hope my (28)________________ come and visit, once or twice a month
Soon I'll be 60 years old, will I think the world is cold?
Or will I have a lot of children who can bore me
Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely.
